Definition
Acrylic emulsion-based, produced with a high thermal processing system in special ovens, three-component decorative topcoat plaster that can be used on interior and exterior surfaces, non-flammable, and waterproof.

 

Application Areas
Can be used on the interior and exterior surfaces of all structurally sound buildings, on concrete, drywall systems, cement-based surfaces with low lime ratio over plaster, rough cast, mineral surfaces, and old painted surfaces. When the specified primers are used, it can also be applied on wooden and metal surfaces.

 

Properties
Water-resistant. With its high water vapor permeability, it allows vapor to escape without obstruction, enabling buildings to breathe. Resistant to alkalis. Unaffected by UV rays, extreme cold or heat, rain, snow, and humidity. Does not blister, crack, or scratch, and adheres perfectly to the applied surface. After drying, the resulting layer has high expansion capability. It has excellent adhesion and diffusion ability. Being water-based, it is environmentally and human-friendly.

 

Application
The surfaces to be applied must be cleaned of dust, dirt, and oil that reduce adhesion, and old, blistered paint layers must be completely removed so that the surface becomes dry, solid, and clean. For new concrete surfaces, at least 28 days should be allowed for curing before application. All water insulation precautions of the building must be completed. Old synthetic-based surfaces should be thoroughly sanded and cleaned of sanding dust. The surface should be primed with Elite Primer, Elite Tex, or Elite Primer in a color suitable for the selected Pul Plaster code. Elite Pul Plaster should be mixed until homogeneous. After the primer dries, Elite Pul Plaster should be evenly spread over the surface with a stainless steel trowel until the substrate is no longer visible (1–1.5 mm thick). Considering air temperature and humidity, troweling should be done after 30–55 minutes to ensure an even finish.

 

Warnings
Application tools should be washed with water immediately after use. If the plaster loses water for various reasons, clean water may be added until the desired consistency is achieved. No material other than clean water should be added. During application and for the following 24 hours, both the ambient and surface temperature should be between +5°C and +35°C, and the surface should not be exposed to rain. Do not apply under direct sunlight, strong wind, fog, high humidity, or when rain is expected. Overheated surfaces should be moistened before application. The water used for mixing and surface preparation should be lime-free. To avoid possible tone differences, products with the same batch number should be used. If different batches must be used, the total required quantity should be mixed in advance.
 

Storage
Must be stored in its unopened package between (+5°C) and (+35°C), protected from contact with water. Shelf life is 24 months.
Packaging: Total of 19 kg — consisting of an 11 kg waterproof special bag, a 4 kg transparent canister, and a 4 kg bucket.

Precautions
Keep away from high-lime water and cement-based fillers. All tools used must be made of stainless steel. Elite Pul Plaster is not a filler material; surface voids must be filled beforehand. Application is not recommended on unfilled gaps between materials such as brick, Ytong, or Bims. Due to its high adhesion, mortar residues spilled on the ground during application must be cleaned before drying.
Water hazard class 1: Slightly hazardous to water. Prevent undiluted material or large quantities from entering groundwater, standing or flowing water, or the sewage system.

 

Component Content
There are three different components in the Elite Flake Plaster Set. These components consist of 10.55 kg Flake, 400 g thickening powder, and 4 kg polymer binder. The colored primer paint matching the Elite Flake Plaster code in the set is used to ensure the prepared mixture is applied correctly to the surface and to prevent workmanship errors. Since the Primer Paint product is not used as a component during the preparation of the Elite Flake Plaster mixture, it is not included among the components.

 

Mixing (Making into Mortar)
Two different methods can be used to turn the Elite Flake Plaster product into mortar.

Method 1:

Pour 15–18 liters of clean tap water into a wide-based and clean container, considering climatic conditions. Make sure that the lime ratio in the water is not higher than it should be. Pour the 400 g thickening powder contained in the 11 kg bag package into the water and mix by hand for 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, add the Flakes into the mixture and continue mixing until all the Flake pieces are moistened. Finally, add the polymer binder into the container and continue mixing for 4 minutes. The resulting mortar should then be transferred into clean buckets and taken to the application area.

Method 2:

Pour 15–18 liters of clean tap water into a wide-based and clean container, considering climatic conditions. Make sure that the lime ratio in the water is not higher than it should be. Pour the two components contained in the 11 kg bag package into the container. To mix the components, use a mechanical mixer with a low speed (maximum 100 rpm). After mixing for 1 minute, pour the polymer binder into the container and continue mixing for another 3 minutes. The resulting mortar should then be transferred into clean buckets and taken to the application area. Ensure that the mixer operates at 100 rpm, as using a higher speed may cause the Flake particles to break excessively.

​

Points to Consider During Mixing
The wide-based container to be used before mixing must be clean. To avoid problems during the next mixing process, after transferring the prepared mortar into clean buckets, the container should be washed with clean water. To determine the lime ratio in the water, pour a sample of the tap water into a glass and add a small amount of thickening powder while stirring. At this stage, the water should not turn into a gel or thicken too quickly. If the water only takes on a yellowish color and does not increase its viscosity rapidly or excessively, the lime ratio is at an ideal level. When using Method 1, the worker performing the mixing should not squeeze the particles by hand or cause clumping. As soon as the mixing process is completed, the worker should wash their hands with clean water, and if the polymer binder comes into contact with the eyes, rinse the eyes with clean water immediately. If there are children aged 0–6 in the mixing area, they should be kept away from the product to prevent contact. Accidental ingestion must be avoided, and in such a case, the individual must be immediately taken to the nearest hospital.
