Application steps

MIXING

SikaWall®-191 Base must be mixed with clean water at the site using a power drill whisk. Pour the required water into a clean container then add SikaWall®-191 Base while stirring continuously until a smooth consistency is achieved. Allow mixture to stand for a few minutes. Mix again and the plaster is ready for use.

 

APPLICATION

SikaWall®-191 Base is applied either by hand with a steel trowel or spatula. The coat is then levelled off to a smooth finish. Ensure that the applied coat has hardened before applying subsequent coats.

CLEANING OF TOOLS

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

FAQ

What are skim coats?

Skim coats are fine mortars applied onto walls and ceilings to a thickness of 2–3 mm to create a flat, smooth and uniform surface, to be painted or re-textured. As a guide, you should apply at least two skim coat layers to achieve a smooth and consistent surface.
