Grooved decorative finish coat
Vetotouch Graviatto is a cement-based decorative finish composed of hydraulic binders, selected aggregates, and special additives. It is supplied as a dry powder in pre-weighed bags ready to use on-site, which requires only the addition of clean water to produce easily workable mortar.
Vetotouch Graviatto is supplied in 25kg Bag.
Coverage - 1.4 Kg/m2/mm Thickness.
Stated consumption data are for general guidance. Actual consumption depends on the nature of substrate, consistency used, method of application, and wastage.
The original sealed bag of Vetotouch Graviatto has a shelf life of 12 months, provided it is stored clear of ground in a dry, shaded place below 35ºC.
Mixing
Add to the mixing container 7.5-8.5 liters of water for each 25kg bag of Vetotouch Graviatto. Add the powder to the water and mix with a mechanical plaster mixer or low-speed heavy-duty electric drill fitted with a suitable paddle for 3-4 minutes until achieving a uniform, lump-free consistency. Leave the mixed material to stand for 10min and briefly remix without adding water.
For small batch quantities, mix manually for approx. 1-2min or until achieving a homogeneous mix.
A manual application is considered (not by spray machines), optionally, adding 0.5 to 1.0 liter of Vetobond AB432 to the mixing water and adjusting the water requirement accordingly for each 25kg bag. Follow the same mixing procedure as described above.
Use the mixed material within 30-60 minutes.
Do not add water once the mixed mortar starts to harden.
Application
Apply Vetotouch Graviatto in one or two layers up to 3mm/coat. Allow the first layer to partially dry (30 to 120 minutes depending on weather conditions) before applying the second layer.
After applying the layers using a steel trowel, wait for about 10 - 15 minutes and then use a special plastic trowel to get groove effects. To protect Vetotouch Graviatto, apply Vetoseal XX772 by brush or spray machine after three days of curing.
Curing
Cure Vetotouch Graviatto by spraying an acrylic based curing compound on the surfaces of the applied material.
Manual curing can be used; however, it is critical to make sure to spray the water uniformly on the surface, keeping it moist at all the time for a period of 3 days.
Cleaning
Clean tools with water before the mortar hardens. After the hardening, remove its residuals mechanically only.
The substrate should be sound, clean, free from loose material, grease, laitance, dirt curing compound, etc.
Before the Vetotouch Graviatto application, wet the entire surfaces with clean potable water. The surface should look damp at the time of the Vetotouch Graviatto application.
Vetotouch Graviatto is highly alkaline; therefore, avoid direct contact with eyes or skin. It is recommended to use protective gloves and goggles during application. Any skin contact should be wash with soap & water. In case of eye irritation, immediately wash with a copious amount of clean cold water. Seek medical advice.
