Parex MICRO-GOBETIS 3000 is designed to control suction against high absorption or low porosity substrates and improves adhesion for one coat render systems such as Parex Monorex, Monoblanco, Blanc Du Littoral, Parextherm & Parexdirect.

It is a pink coloured liquid with a high granular consistency for ease of application recognition and to provide excellent bonding characteristics. 

Coverage
250 – 500g per m2 (40 – 80m2 per bucket)
Expect increased consumption on high absorption substrates (Aircrete/Thermalite blocks & phenolic insulation)

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Pink in colour for ease of identification/application
• Excellent bonding characteristics
• Minimises the risk of air pockets occurring in the application of one coat render systems

SUITABLE SUBSTRATES

Smooth, low porosity substrates such as cast concrete, concrete or engineering bricks.

High absorption substrates such as lightweight aircrete (Thermalite) blockwork, common bricks and certain float smoothed, well adhered, render surfaces.

APPLICATION

For low porosity substrates, apply in a single coat using a roller or brush.

On high absorption substrates, the application may require two coats.

For two coat applications, apply a diluted (maximum 5% with clean water) first coat of MICRO-GOBETIS 3000 and allow to dry. Then apply an undiluted second coat.

Test the substrate for suction i.e. using a plasterers paddle brush, cast some water at the treated surface and if it sucks in, apply a further coat, if it sits on the surface the substrate is ready for the render application. To avoid excessive applications, it is recommended this procedure is completed after the first coat, as subsequent coats may not be required. Once suction control is satisfactory continue with the render application.

The render product or system can be applied as soon as MICRO-GOBETIS 3000 is dry, i.e. after 1 to 24 hours depending on weather conditions.
