Surface Preparation
The substrate should be sound, clean, free from loose
material, grease, laitance, dirt curing compound, etc.
Before the Vetotouch Serene application, wet the
entire surfaces with clean potable water. The surface
should look damp at the time of the Vetotouch Serene
application.
Mixing
Add to the mixing container 9.5-11.5 liters of water for
each 25kg bag of Vetotouch Serene. 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.
Manual mixing is allowed for small batch quantities
and mix for approx. 1-2 min or when homogeneous
mix is achieved.
Add 0.5 to 1.0 liter of Vetobond AB432 to the mixing
water and adjust the water requirement accordingly for
each 25kg bag. Follow the same mixing procedure as
described above.
Use the mixed material within 2 hours.
Do not add water once the mixed mortar starts to
harden.
Application
Apply Vetotouch Serene by trowel application in a
single or multiple coats on smooth (plastered) surfaces
to achieve the desired thickness of 1-3 mm.
Curing
It is vital to cure Vetotouch Serene 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 all tools employed to apply Vetotouch Serene
with water before it hardens; otherwise, mechanical
means are needed.
