K Lime SB1 is a Stipple Bond. It is a cement-free preparatory coat to combat problems due to insufficient key or poor suction. It is used to give a larger surface area and improve the adhesion of K Lime renders to difficult substrates such as natural stone & brickwork.
It is applied using a hawk & trowel, scrubbed into the surface and immediately textured to leave a rough stipple finish.

Application Instructions | |
---|---|
Add 25kg of powder to 4-5 litres of water with mixing. Mix thoroughly for at least 10 minutes to break down the additives to give a fluid easily worked mortar. K Lime SB1 can be applied using a hawk and trowel. Apply K Lime SB1 to substrate, scrub well into the background and immediately create a rough stipple effect using a textured roller. Allow scud coat to dry before rendering. |
