Planitop 200

Water-repellent cementitious skimming mortar with a fine, natural finish for concrete and plastic, glass and porcelain coatings.

Available in a 25kg unit.

Technical Description

Planitop 200 is a one-component, fine-grained, water-repellent cementitious skimming mortar available in grey or white, based on special high resistance binders, selected aggregate, special admixtures and synthetic powder polymers prepared according to a formula developed in the MAPEI research laboratories.

The special composition of Planitop 200, mixed only with water, imparts high bonding strength, easy application with a flat trowel and easy finishing with a metal or sponge float.

Planitop 200 can be applied at a maximum thickness of 3 mm per coat.

For greater thickness but not more than 6 mm, two coats must be applied and a 4x4.5 mm MAPEI Mapenet 150 (alkaliresistant glass fibre mesh in compliance with ETAG 004) inserted between the first and second coat.

Mapenet 150 must also be used when the surface to be skimmed is made up of different types of material. In good weather, coloured finishing products from the Silexcolor, Silancolor, Quarzolite, Elastocolor, Colorite or Dursilite ranges may be applied one week after applying Planitop 200. The latter product may be used for decorating internal or external surfaces as long as they are partially covered and protected from direct exposure to the sun and rain.

Planitop 200 meets the main requirement of EN 1504-9 (“Products and systems for protecting and repairing concrete structures: definitions, requirements, quality control and conformity assessment. General principles for the use of products and systems”) and the minimum requirements of EN 1504-2 coating (C) according to principles MC and IR (“Concrete surface protection systems”) and is classified as GP (“General purpose mortar for internal/extarnal render”), category CS IV according to EN 998-1.

Areas of Use

Fine-grained, natural-finish skimming layer for internal and external concrete, cementitious and lime-mortar render, old quartz paint, scratch-effect plastic coatings and glass or porcelain mosaics.

Some application examples:
· Levelling and finishing concrete walls, cementitious renders or cement lime mortar before painting.
· Smoothing walls, even over existing paint such as washable acrylic paints, quartz paints, textured paints, etc. as long as
they are sound, clean and well anchored.
· Smoothing over glass or porcelain mosaics on walls.
· Smoothing gypsum wall-board panels (treated beforehand with Primer G).
· Smoothing mineral wood panels (such as Eraclit ).
