Usage Instructions

Make sure the surface is sound, clean, and free from loose material, grease, laitance, dirt-curing compounds, etc. before applying Vetonit Putty WR. Wet the entire surface with clean potable water. The surface should look damp at the time of the application.

For mechanical mixing, add 10 - 11 litres of water for a 25kg bag of Vetonit Putty WR (16 - 17.6 L for 40 kg bag) to a mixing container. Mix with a mechanical plaster mixer or with a low-speed electric drill fitted with a suitable paddle until a uniform, lump-free consistency is achieved.

Leave the mixed material to stand for 10 mins then briefly remix without adding water. Mix small batch quantities manually until a homogenous mix is achieved. When required, add 1 litre of Vetonit Bond 2 to the mixing water and adjust the water requirement for each 20kg bag of Vetonit Putty WR accordingly. Follow the same mixing procedure as above.

Use the mixed material within 3 hours. Do not add water once the mixed filler mortar starts to harden.

Generally, it is recommended to apply Vetonit Putty WR in single or double coats. Apply Vetonit Putty WR to the substrate by pressing the putty firmly onto it. Use a flat trowel to level the material to a smooth finish. Apply a second coat if necessary once the first coat sets.

After applying Vetonit Putty WR, it is recommended to apply one coat of alkali-resistant primer followed by two coats of acrylic emulsion paint or other suitable coatings.

Vetonit Putty WR is self-curing, and it does not require water treatment. However, when using Vetonit Putty WR as a final finish, it is recommended to apply a single coat of Bond Pure. The bonding agent will act as a surface enhancer and a curing compound & it will naturally disintegrate with time.

Clean all tools with water immediately after finishing. Clean hardened materials mechanically.
