Mode of application

Clean the surface before use. If there are large gaps, then before applying the putty they must be repaired or reinforcement should be applied. Foreign matter, such as grease, dust and others, must be removed with a primer method, otherwise the adhesion may be weakened.

Remember to protect windows and other surfaces that will not be treated.

Spackling paste is prepared by mixing a dry mix and water. For the batch of 25 kg will need 10 liters. After thorough mixing, it is important to allow the solution to infuse for about 10-20 minutes, then you need to mix the composition again with a special nozzle on a drill until a homogeneous thick paste is formed. If you follow all the rules of mixing, putty gets the consistency, ideal for work.

The shelf life of the finished solution, the temperature of which should not exceed 10 ° C, is 1.5-2 hours after mixing the dry mixture with water.In the manufacture of mortar putty Vetonit should not allow an overdose of water. It can lead to deterioration of strength and cracking of the treated surface.

After preparation, the composition is applied to the prepared walls manually or with the help of special mechanical devices. The latter significantly speeds up the process of work, however, at the same time, the solution consumption increases significantly. Vetonit can be applied to wood and porous boards using the spraying method.

After application, the filler is leveled with a metal spatula.

If alignment is performed in several layers, it is necessary to apply each subsequent layer with an interval of at least 24 hours. Drying time is determined depending on the layer thickness and temperature.

The range of layer thickness varies from 0.2 to 3 mm. Before applying the next layer, make sure that the previous one is dry, otherwise gaps and cracks may form. Do not forget to clean the dried out layer of dust and treat it with special sanding paper.

In dry and hot climates, for a better hardening process, it is recommended to moisten the leveled surface with water, for example,using a spray bottle. After complete drying of the composition, you can proceed to the next stage of work. If you align the ceiling, then after applying the putty there is no need for further processing.

After work, all tools involved should be rinsed with water. The remaining material should not be drained into the sewer, otherwise you can clog the pipes.
