• Commercial buildings.
• Residential buildings.
• Public buildings.
• Industrial buildings.
• Institutional buildings.
• Fire escape zones and equipment rooms

SURFACE PREPARATION

For hot climatic conditions, the surface may be dampened with potable water. All loose particles and oil shall be cleaned off the surface prior to application.

Note: Over RCC and smooth concrete surfaces, a base coat of Ressi BRC 7000 may be used if required.

PRODUCT PREPARATION 

For manual application it is important that water is pre-measured in accordance with the amount of material used. Generally, 800 milli liter –1.2 liter of water is required for the preparation of 1KG of Insulaster. The mortar powder should be added over the water to avoid settlement of the material at the bottom of the mixing container. The mixing container should be uncontaminated, non-corrosive and clean using only potable water. It is recommended to use an automatic drill machine mixer for the mixing of Insulaster with water. However, Insulaster can also be sprayed over the surface using a plaster / render spray machine recommended by Ressichem.

APPLICATION

With proper surface preparation and mixing of the material, conventional plastering techniques can be used to apply Insulaster. However, for speedy application it is strongly recommended to do proper surface preparation and spray the material using a plastering/ rendering spray machine for higher output of work. Insulaster can be applied in multiple layers of 18mm to 4mm. The time between both the layers can be anywhere from 24 hours to 72 hours depending on temperature & humidity

CURING

No curing is required in general however maximum curing of 72 hours where hot climate conditions prevail.
Shelf life.

SHELF LIFE

Expiration of Insulaster is 12 Months after production under dry and sheltered conditions. High levels of humidity and moisture may reduce shelf life.
