Ceresit CT 174 MACHINE is a plaster dedicated for machine application, which combines the good points of silicate plaster and silicone plaster. It is vapour permeable, of low absorption and dirt resistant. Product is used for making thin-layer plasters on concrete substrates, traditional plasters, gypsum substrates and chipboards, gypsum cardboards, etc. We recommend the application of the plaster CT 174 as facade plaster within Ceresit ETICS with the application of EPS-boards and mineral wool boards. Thanks to machine application of the plaster, work can be finished with less effort and in shorter time when compared with manual technique. For dedicated ETICS applications and bigger objects we recommend to use SPG Baumaschinen PG 20 Plaster spraying machine or Wagner PC 830 Compact plaster aggregate. While plastering smaller objects (walls up to 100m2), it is advised to use 100 l air compressor with plaster spray gun. Due to several advantages of machine application product is especially recommended to finish large objects e.g. commercial or multi-family residential buildings.

Step By Step

1. PROTECTION OF DOORS AND WINDOWS

 

Doors, windows and a plinth area should be covered and sealed with the plastic foil. Tape position along the plinth will determine the edge line of the plaster, so perform taping in a straight line.

2. PRIMING

 

Prime the substrate with the suitable agent – we recommend to use priming paint CT 16 in colour similar to the colour of the plaster. Plaster can be sprayed when the primer becomes completely dry.

3. MACHINE PREPARATION

 

If using a plaster spraying machine SPG PG 20 or similar device, assemble all the parts following manufacturers recommendations.

4. MACHINE FILLING

 

First, pour some of the priming paint into the hopper and pump it out. This will later provide an easy flow of the plaster. Next, stir CT 174 MACHINE plaster and pour it into the machine.

5. PLASTERING TRIAL

 

Spray a spare board (e.g. gypsum cardboard) to check the air pressure, the size of the nozzle and spraying fluency.

6. PLASTER APPLICATION

 

Place the nozzle vertically approx 40 - 60 cm from the wall and spray the surface with smooth, round moves.

7. CLEANING

 

Immediately after spraying, disassemble all the parts and wash them thoroughly. Clean the hopper, the hose and the nozzle with water.

8. DRYING

 

To conduct further works, wait until surface is completely dry. Faster or slower drying of the plaster may occur in different conditions.
