Surface Preparation
The substrate should be sound, clean, free from loose
material, grease, laitance, dirt curing compound, etc.
Before the Vetotouch Europa application, wet the en-
tire surfaces with clean potable water. The surface
should look damp at the time of the Vetotouch Europa
application.
Mixing
Add to the mixing container 7.5-8.5 liters of water for
each 25kg bag of Vetotouch Europa. Add the powder
to the water and mix with a mechanical plaster mixer or
low-speed heavy-duty electric drill fitted with a suitable
paddle for 3-4 minutes until achieving a uniform, lump-
free consistency. Leave the mixed material to stand for
10min and briefly remix without adding water.
For small batch quantities, mix the material manually
for approx. 1-2 min or when achieving homogeneous
mix.
A manual application is considered (not by spray
machines), optionally, adding 0.5 to 1.0 liter of
Vetobond AB432 to the mixing water and adjusting
the water requirement accordingly for each 25kg bag.
Follow the same mixing procedure as described above.
Use the mixed material within 30-60 minutes. Do not
add water once the mixed mortar starts to harden.
Application
Apply Vetotouch Europa in a single or multiple coats
on smooth (plastered) surfaces by trowel application to
achieve the desired thickness of 1-5mm.
Curing
It is vital to cure Vetotouch Europa surface with clean
potable water 2 times a day for 3 days. During hot
and dry conditions, extend the curing period for a
minimum of 5-7 days. It will help to obtain high physical
properties. An acrylic-based curing compound can be
used.
To protect the final color look, it is recommended
to apply one coat of Saveto Vetoseal product range
(contact the technical department for advice).
Cleaning
Clean tools with water before the mortar hardens. After
the hardening, remove its residuals mechanically only.
Packaging & Coverage
Stated consumption data are for general guidance.
