FINISHES

  • Fine Scraped
  • Sponge or Float Smoothed*
  • Trowel Smoothed*
  • Spray Textured - from tyrolean style to heavy roughcast effect.

For additional information refer to the data sheet on Textured Mineral Finishes.

*The float/sponge/trowel smoothed finishes may vary in appearance, particularly due to different factors such as the line and level and condition of the substrate or the appearance of a slurry finish caused by over floating the surface. The latter may produce some micro cracking effect on the render surface which may affect the aesthetical appearance but does not affect its durability.

APPLICATION

  • Refer to and comply with the Substrate Preparation first. 
  • For very severe wind driven rain index locations, high exposure or coastal zones please contact PAREX® for additional guidance as the render thickness may need to be increased and additional surface treatment may be recommended. 

SUITABLE FOR

  • Machine or manual applications.
  • Ensure the product is mixed correctly with the correct water content and do not allow the render to cure too quickly as surface holes in the render could occur

FOR WEATHER PROOFING APPLICATIONS ONTO CONCRETE, CONCRETE BLOCKS, BRICKS, SUBSTRATES (SUBJECT TO SURFACE PREPARATION).

SCRAPED FINISH

  • Apply a level, ruled compact 18 mm thick coat, level the surface with a straight edge, spatula or trowel flat. Allow to dry (3-16 hours) and depending on the substrate and drying conditions, scrape the surface in small circular motions using a scraping tool, removing no more than 3 mm from the surface.
  • This scraping process must remove any slight imperfections and bring the application to the specified finished thickness. Each elevation must be scraped at the same stage, as early scraping will result in a slightly darker shade and later scraping in a lighter shade.The minimum finished thickness after scraping is 15 mm. 
  • After scraping, any dust on the surface should be removed by brushing with a clean soft bristle brush. Always stand back and examine the whole surface for blemishes and unevenness. Errors must be corrected at this stage as rectification later is not practical

SPONGE / FLOAT / TROWEL FINISHES*

  • Apply a level, compact, minimum 15 mm thick coat in 1 or 2 coats. Obtain the finish with a stainless 
    steel floating trowel, wooden, sponge or plastic float

THICKNESS

  • Due to construction variations, the minimum thickness must not be less than 15 mm after the 
     Scraped, Float Smoothed or Trowel/Sponge Smoothed finishes.

RUSTIFICATION/ASHLAR EFFECT

  • It is recommended that a minimum depth of render to the back of the rustification/ashlar cut should be no less than 15mm. To achieve this depth will require the finished thickness of the main render to  be increased to approximately 20 - 25 mm.

FOR DECORATING WATERPROOF CONCRETE AND MASONRY SUBSTRATES I.E. COVERED WITH AN EXISTING SOUND AND  WEATHERPROOF RENDER.

SCRAPED FINISH

  • Apply a level, ruled compact 13 mm thick coat, level the surface with a straight edge, spatula or trowel flat. Allow to dry (3-16) hours and depending on the substrate and drying conditions, scrape the surface in small circular motions using a scraping tool, removing no more than 3 mm from the surface. 
    Then follow the same procedure detailed above.

SPONGE / FLOAT / TROWEL FINISHES*

  • Apply a level, compact, minimum 10 mm thick coat. Obtain the finish with a stainless steel floating trowel, wooden, sponge or plastic float.

*For ease of application and finish, avoid using AXEL 3000, ALGIREX or 751 LANKOLATEX in the top coat application of the trowel, float or sponge smooth finish.
