Polymer Render 20Kg

Product

Insulcon Polymer is a 20kg bag factory blended, acrylic render that is suitable for application to raw polystyrene and cement sheeting substrates. Insulcon Polymer is a highly modified acrylic polymer render.

Surface & Product Preparation

It is imperative that either the polystyrene substrate or cement sheet substrate in which Insulcon Polymer is to be applied, is totally clean and removed of all loose particles, such as yellow dusty residue (commonly caused by raw styrene overexposure), dirt, dust, etc. Failure to do so can cause delamination resulting in damage to the finish product. Insulcon takes no responsibility for problems arising from this. In a clean bucket add approx. 3 litres of clean water . Then whilst mixing with a mechanical mixer, add contents of Insulcon Polymer bag into the bucket. A smooth paste mix is the desired finish to achieve maximum results, both in finish and application. If the mixture is too wet, it can be very messy and difficult to apply, resulting in hanging too long on the wall, making floating very hard and time consuming. If the mixture is too dry then it will be very difficult to apply as it will not glide on the wall and will tear when floating. This can also have an effect on drying time, resulting in a compromised fast cured product.

Coverage

When Insulcon Polymer is applied according to manufacturers instructions, Insulcon Polymer will cover approx. 6-8 square metres on raw polystyrene and approx. 7-9 square metres on cement sheet/blueboard. Ideal styrene application thickness of 5mm is recommended allowing sufficient thickness for the mesh to be embedded. Approx. 2-3mm is recommended for cement sheeting/blueboard applications.
