Weather Resistant Premix Cement Coating for Internal Use
Vetonit Base WR is a cement-based coating composed of hydraulic binders, selected aggregates, and special additives. It is supplied as a dry powder in a pre-weighed bags ready to use on-site, which required only the addition of clean water to produce easily workable mortar. Vetonit Base WR is a high-quality product for multipurpose use and as a base coat for Vetonit Finish WR. Vetonit Base WR can be applied in thickness from 1 mm to 5 mm, in one or two layers depending on-site requirement. Vetonit Base WR is available in two standard colors white, Grey & Saveto standard colors.
- Factory controlled pre-blend ensures consistently high quality.

Vetonit Base WR is supplied in 25kg Bag or Bulk.
Yield: 1.0 - 1.2 Kg /m2 / 1mm thickness.
Stated consumption data are for general guidance. Actual value depends on the nature of the substrate, method of application & wastages.
An original sealed bag of Vetonit Base WR has a shelf life of 12 months provided it is stored clear of ground in a dry and shaded place.
Vetonit Base WR is non-flammable.
Mixing
Internal Block Walls & Rough Surfaces
For manual application add to the mixing container 7.5-8.5 liters of water for each 25 Kg bag of Vetonit Base WR. For Spray machine application use 9.5-10.0 liters of water for each 25 kg bag. Add the powder to the water and mix with a mechanical plaster mixer or low-speed electric drill fitted with a suitable paddle for 3-4 minutes, until a uniform, lump-free consistency is achieved. Allow the mixed material to stand for about 10 minutes and remix briefly with no further water should be added.
Smooth Concrete Surfaces
Add 0.5 liters of Vetonit Bond 2 to the mixing water and adjust the water requirement accordingly for each 25 kg bag. Follow the same mixing procedure as described above.
Mixed material can be used within 2 hours. Do not add water to the mix once the mixed mortar starts to harden.
Application
Vetonit Base WR can be applied to achieve a maximum thickness of 5 mm in layers; 1-2 mm per layer.
Various grades of finish textures can be obtained by selecting appropriate spray machine nozzle sizes.
Allow the installed application to remain undisturbed for at least 48 hours.
Curing
Vetonit Base WR is best cured by spraying water on the surfaces of applied materials every 12 hrs for a minimum of 3 days. During hot & dry conditions allow curing for a minimum of 5 days. This will help in achieving uniform color, minimize risk of surface cracks, and high mechanical strengths.
The surface should be sound, clean free from loose material, grease, laitance, dirt curing compound, etc.
Prior to Vetonit Base WR application, wet the entire surfaces with clean potable water and surface should look damp at the time of the Vetonit Base WR application.
- Do not mix with any additives or products, unless recommended by Saveto.
- Make sure the substrate is suitable for the plaster coat application. In case of doubt, try on the sample area to assess its suitability.
- Do not apply the product at a temperature of less than +5ºC. During the summer season, the working area must be covered to prevent ill-effects from direct sun and also excessive air-draught during the initial curing stage.
- Tools should be cleaned with water before the mortar hardens. After the hardening, its residuals can be removed mechanically only.

Vetonit Base WR 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 washed with a copious amount of clean cold water. Seek medical advice.
