9.3.2.4 Repairing:
Replace or patch loose, cracked, damaged or defective work as directed below;
9.3.2.4.1 Cut and remove any loose material from the area which is defective.
9.3.2.4.2 Incase of crack, Chip the craked surface in V-shape (5cm to 10 cm) up to the
surface where no further crack is visible.
9.3.2.4.3 Clean the surface and make it properly wet.
9.3.2.4.4 If the crack/defective surface has MEP conduit, install the mesh before plaster.
9.3.2.4.5 Brush the area with cement slury to make a proper bond between existing defective
surface and new plaster.
9.3.2.4.6 Redo the plaster as per above mentioned procedure.
9.3.2.4.7 Make proper curing as described above (in section-9.3.2.3.6)
PRODUCT
premix SRC-2 is a ready mixed mortar based on mineral
bonding agent used for preparing surfaces before the
rendering. It improves the adhesion of the new plaster,
cement & gypsum based. premix SRC-2 is specially
designed to be applied on normal strength fair faced
concrete.

PRODUCT
premix SP-11 is a cementitious fibre reinforced ready
mix plaster used for traditional plastering works in a clean
and speedy manner, while keeping a homogeneous mix. Due
to its high content in additives, it allows better shrinkage
control as well as improved workability, bonding and curing.
premix SP-11 is recommended for external and internal
plastering on block walls, ceilings, concrete surfaces, bricks
and for general filling up.
premix SP-11 can be applied traditionally by hand or by
using modern plaster-spraying machines.
It should not be used on painted surfaces or floors.
For the application on Light Weight concrete blocks, it is
recommended to use premix SP-3 FL or premix
SP 33.

CURING
Protect the newly applied plaster from sunshine and wind.
The new plaster has to be cured with water for at least three
days by spraying 3 to 4 times daily.
CONSUMPTION
Approximately 1.6 kg per m² per 1 mm thickness.
STORAGE
12 months after manufacturing date in original and non-open
packaging , under cover, in dry condition, away from humidity,

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The product contains cement powders which, when mixed
with water, release alkalis that could be harmful to the skin. It
is preferable that the application be done in a ventilated
area, and to wear protective gear for hands, eyes and
respiratory system and to avoid breathing of the dust.
Splashes on the skin should be washed away by cleaning
with soap and water. In case of contact with eyes, wash
thoroughly with clean water. If swallowed, do not induce
vomiting, in both cases seek medical attention. The product
