Application steps

MIXING

Add clean water to SikaWall®-160 Plaster and mix thoroughly using a hand-held or mechanical mixer for 3–5 minutes until a homogenous lump-free paste is achieved. Allow mixture to stand for a few minutes for additives to dissolve and mix is ready for use.

 

APPLICATION

Apply SikaWall®-160 Plaster onto moist, clean substrate using a wooden/steel float or steel trowel while the mix is still workable. It can be applied at a recommended thickness of 5–15 mm per layer of application and up to a total build-up thickness of 30 mm. Ensure that each layer has hardened before applying the subsequent layer.

CLEANING OF TOOLS

Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use. Hardened and/or cured material can only be removed mechanically.
