Restoration plaster system for masonry work damaged by damp and salt without additional waterproofing measures

Key Facts

1 Substrate preperation

  1. Remove the plaster from at least 80 cm beyond the damaged area.
  2. Scrape crumbly and salt loaded joints out to at least 20 mm deep.
  3. Use ESCO-FLUAT to convert sulphate and chloride salts from salts that dissolve easily to salts that are difficult to dissolve.
  4. Use THERMOPAL-GP11 to compensate for joints and voids.

2 Producing the horizontal damp proof barrier

  1. Use AQUAFIN-i380 or AQUAFIN-F to create a retroactive horizontal barrier.
  2. Use ASOCRET-M30 to seal the drilled holes again.

3 Restoration plaster system

  1. For improved adhesion, apply the THERMOPAL-SP splatterdash coat as a semi-covering to the load-bearing substrate.
  2. If required (e.g. high salt loading and large surface irregularities), apply the THERMOPAL-GP11 base plaster as an intermediate layer. Roughen up the surface horizontally for the subsequent restoration plaster.
  3. Use the THERMOPAL-ULTRA-white restoration plaster to plaster the wall surfaces.
  4. THERMOPAL-FS33 can be applied as a finish if fine plaster is required.
