PEGASUS PEG GYPSUM PLASTER

It is a healthy and natural ready-to-use gypsum plaster product that can be applied directly to surfaces such as concrete, aerated concrete, brick and pumice block.

Uses

It is used in the interior ceilings and walls of all buildings that require plaster as well as on surfaces such as brick, concrete, aerated concrete, pumice brick etc., and on all surfaces where cement plaster is applied.

Surface Preparation

The surfaces to be plastered should be cleaned from dust, oil and adhesion inhibitors. If the brick wall is too hot under the sun, it should be moistened. Aerated concrete surfaces should be moistened before plastering. Gross concrete surfaces should be roughened before plaster application or primed with Gross Concrete Primer 12 hours prior to the application. In order to obtain a uniform surface in the plaster to be applied, wheel spacers should be placed at intervals of 1-1.5 m or spacers as in black plaster. A plaster corner profile should be placed in the outer corners before plastering. When installing the spacers on the wall surface, the plaster thickness should be between minimum 5 mm and maximum 25 mm. It is healthy. It balances the humidity in the environment, provides thermal insulation and thermal comfort. It is ready-to-use plaster. It is available in laminated polypropylene bags of 40 kg.

Application

 Preparation of the Mortar

The container, in which the mortar will be prepared, should be flexible, wide, waterproof, and its inner surface should be smooth. The ideal mixture of mortar is 10 kg of plaster for 6.0-6.5 liters of water. Practically, firstly the half of the container is filled with water. Pegasus PEG Gypsum Plaster is then added until a layer of gypsum is formed on the surface of water. After waiting for a few minutes, it is mixed by hand or with a low-speed mixer for a maximum of 1-1,5 minutes and turned into mortar. The mortar should not be mixed for a long time, early setting can be seen in the mortar, which is mixed for an extended period of time and at a high speed. The resulting mortar can remain in the container with a plastic consistency for one hour. This duration is shorter in case of mortar applied to the wall.

Application of Mortar to the Wall

 It is the same as in cement, lime or sand plaster. The mortar placed on the shovel is filled by pressing between the spacers according to the required filling thickness or filled by throwing with a trowel and spread over the surface. The spacer gaps filled in this way are leveled with an aluminum rectangular gauge or sharp gauge suitable for this process. The gauge is pressed against the spacers and the excess mortar is scraped off. The scraped mortar is filled into the gaps on the surface and re-leveled with gauge. The leveled plaster surface is kept in this way and the gaps between others spacers are filled. Approximately 45-60 minutes after the filling process is completed, if the finger does not sink when pressed hard against the mortar on the surface, the plaster surface can be shaved with a steel trowel to obtain a smooth appearance. The inner corners are smoothed with a corner grater. After the completion of the correction process, the leveled plaster surface is made ready for painting by applying one or two layers of PEGASUS Satin Finishing Plaster.

If the plaster surface is not so smoothly gauged that it cannot be corrected with Pegasus Satin Finishing Plaster, Pegasus Satin Finishing Plaster and Pegasus Plaster (50% – 50%) are mixed into mortar before the bottom surface becomes completely dry. This prepared mortar is applied to the plaster surface with a thickness of 2-3 mm and a more uniform surface is obtained for satin application. After the slight hardening of the surface, Pegasus Satin Finishing Plaster is applied directly to the surface and the surface is made ready for painting. Ceiling plaster should be filled and gauged as much as possible in the thickness of 5 -10 mm as one layer and at once. The surface of the plaster should be smoothed by shaving, after it hardens slightly. Then it should be polished with Pegasus Satin Finishing Plaster and made ready for painting.

Safety Information

100% natural gypsum contains modifiers that do not harm human health. The shelf life is 8 months from the date of production when stored on the pallet without opening the packaging in dry environment. It complies with TS EN 13279-1,2 standard.

Warnings and Recommendations

Pegasus PEG Gypsum Plaster should not be applied more than 5 mm in a single layer.

Pegasus PEG Gypsum Plaster cannot be used as a thin (2-3 mm) filling material, otherwise dusting and low strength will occur.

When preparing the mortar, attention must necessarily be paid to the ratio of water / gypsum.

After the mortar is mixed, neither Pegasus PEG Gypsum Plaster nor water should be added.

No other material should be added to the prepared mortar.

When preparing the new mortar, the remnants of the old mortar in the Gypsum Plastering Machine and all other apparatus (hose, gun etc.) should be thoroughly cleaned.

If it is necessary to apply plaster thicker than 25 mm due to balance disorders on the wall, then the second layer should be applied before the first layer dries completely and without polishing the first layer.

The prepared grout should be consumed within 60 minutes.

Applications should not be made at temperatures below +5 °C and above +35 °C.

Application should not be made on dusty and crunchy surfaces without taking the necessary precautions.

Application should not be done in cases where there is a risk of freezing within 24 hours.

Dry surfaces should be moistened before plastering.

Gross concrete surfaces should be either roughened or primed with a suitable primer before plastering.

The powder formed after sanding should be removed. The primer and paint application on the undusted surfaces will be easily separated from the surface as a result of an impact that may occur later.

At different material joints, a plaster mesh should be placed on back and front before plastering.

Metal surfaces should be painted one layer with primer paint against rusting before plastering.

Avoid applying in very hot weather, under strong winds and sun.

The addition of foreign material should never be made.

The recommended ratios and times for preparing the mortar should be strictly followed.

Already used material that has already began to harden should not be added to new mixtures.

During application, all tools should be washed with water before they dry.
