Application

FARBOCUSTIC can be applied on: concrete, cement mortar, laminated plasterboard, ceramic brick, hollow ceramic brick, galvanised steel and nervometal mesh.

  • Plasterboard substrates must be the waterproof type, anchored to the metal structure, spaced every 400 mm and screwed every 200 mm with a washer.
  • Fresh traditional mortar and plaster substrates, cured for a minimum of 30 days.
  • New concrete substrates, cured for at least 45 days.
  • For applications on very porous, disaggregated and moisture barrier substrates, FARBOFIX primer should be applied in a variable dosage of 0.2 to 0.5 kg/m².

For any type of substrate other than those mentioned, contact Carboline Technical Service to obtain the instructions for appropriate surface preparation prior to application of the FARBOCUSTIC mortar.
