Yield:
8.9 m2/sack (nominal 2 mm thickness) 21 l/sack
Consumption:
1.4 kg/m2/mm
Substrate:
Substrates must be sound, clean, dry, free from frost, dust and efflorescence.
Basecoat renders should be fully cured. Any cracks are to be scraped open with a pointed tool to form a V groove.
High suction substrates must be dampened with water.
Very smooth substrates surfaces should roughened or pre-treated with Baumit Haftmörtel HM 50 contact mortar. Friable basecoats must be pre-treated with a stabiliser such as Baumit ReMineral/PutzFestiger.
Application:
Mixing: Baumit Klima RK 70 N can be mixed with clean water in a tub to a lump free, creamy consistency with an electric hand mixer. Material which has started setting must not be remixed with water. Mixing with other products (e.g. anti-frost agents or accelerating agents) is not permitted.
Automated continuous horizontal mixers may also be used. For small areas the contact mortar can be manually applied. For larger areas the freshly mixed mortar can be fed into a mortar pump for spray application. Alternatively, a mortar mixing pump will provide an all-in-one mixing and spraying solution.
Topcoat finish: Baumit Klima RK 70 N as a fine topcoat finish plaster is applied onto the basecoat and smoothed out flat with a trowel or spatula to a min. thickness of 2 mm. Upon setting the surface can be lightly rubbed over with a fine sponge float in tight circular motions to produce a fine, plain finish. A particularly smooth finish can be achieved by applying another thin coat of the contact mortar the following day. Other finishing techniques such as freestyle texturing, soft brushing etc. are also possible. A paint finish may be applied if required.
Preparation of render and plaster substrates: Baumit Klima RK 70 N is applied to a min. thickness of 5 mm (with embedded Baumit StarTex reinforcing mesh where necessary) and the surface keyed with a stiff brush or plasterer comb. Allow to dry for 1-2 days.
