Spread Rate:

While the spread rate is directly dependent on the surface profile and also the type of undulations it has, as a thumb rule Emprofile décor would cover 0.5 to 1 sq. meters per lit. Drying Time (30° C)       : Set to touch: 3 – 4 hours.

: Ready for Recoat: app 6 – 8 hours.

Recommended DFT                      : 1 to 2 coats. App 1.5 mm to 2 mm. per coat.

A good surface preparation and following the method statement / recommended system procedure of DOLOMITE is an ideal recommendation for the application of Emprofile.

For Plaster, Masonry & Concrete:

Achieve a good and clean surface by removing all contaminants by cleaning & drying. A laitance free surface should be achieved by good sweep blast or a wire brush. Before applying the Emprofile apply one coat of DOLOMITE Alkali Resistant Primer or DOLOMITE All Weather Tex Primer and allow drying. Apply one good coat like a plaster and with a trowel and spread the same evenly to the desired pattern.

For Old and Painted surfaces:

In case of surfaces which are painted / or aged and if there is visible dusting, chalking or even friable, ensure that all the loose material is removed by scrapping or metal brush. If the situation is critical it is recommended to do torching of the same and apply a good coat of DOLOMITE Fungicidal wash compound and allow drying. Follow this by a regular coat or two of DOLOMITE Alkali Resistant primer and continue as in the above case with the full system.

Exclusions for successful application include perpetually wet surfaces and also large cavities on wood, concrete surfaces.

Adequate ventilation is an ideal situation as it helps in drying and the good application itself. Avoid high humid conditions i.e., >95% when condensation is likely to interfere and also when the surface temperature is at least 3°c above dew point.

One can add 5 to 10% of sweet water for ease of application depending on the suitability of application.

Caution: a. Over diluting would result in a flat and wrong pattern.

1. In case of hot climatic conditions were the substrate could be very hot it is necessary that adequate cooling is done after the primer is applied and before the application of the texture with good amounts of cold water.

Under dry and cool condition, storage stability can be sound up to 18 months in original sealed containers.
