AR PLAST : READY MADE PLASTER
Product Description:
AR PLAST – Ready Mix Plaster is a polymer modified premixed cement based plaster. It is strong, convenient, simple to use and binds better to its substrate. It provides an even surface on which tiling can be done faster & efficiently. It has strong adhesive characteristics on all substrates. It can be applied for interior and exterior work on horizontal and vertical surfaces.
Advantages:
- High Bond Strength
- Reduced cost as compared to traditional sand plastering.
- Consistent quality made using mix of well graded sand and additives
- Crack Free, uniform and smooth finish walls
- Faster completion of work negligible wastage
- Excellent Coverage and convenient to apply
- Needs less curing and binds better to substrate
- Reduced water absorption therefore enhanced durability
Suitable Substrates:
- AAC Block/Concrete Block
- Red Clay Bricks
- Cement Mortar Blocks/Bricks
- Concrete Hollow Blocks
- Cellular Concrete Blocks
- Stone Walls
- Fly Ash Bricks
