British Gypsum ThistlePro UniFinish Plaster- 25kg

ThistlePro UniFinish is a gypsum finish plaster specially formulated for re-skimming over a wide range of backgrounds with no need for pre-treatment with PVA. It provides a smooth, inert, high quality surface to internal walls and ceilings, and a durable base for the application of decorative finishes. Thistle UniFinish is a retarded hemihydrate, pre-mixed gypsum plaster, requiring only the addition of clean water to prepare it for use. Apply with firm pressure, build out to 2mm thickness in two applications and trowel to a smooth matt finish as the plaster progressively hardens through setting or by loss of water into the background.

• Bags should be stored dry, as absorption of water shortens the setting time, causes set lumps to form in the bags and may reduce the strength of the set plasterwork,
• Thistle plasters should be mixed by adding to clean water in clean mixing equipment. Contamination from previous mixes adversely affects the setting time and the strength. Fresh contamination has more effect than old, so equipment should be washed just after mixing rather than just before,
• Apply in 2 coats , each coat at a minimum of 1mm thickness,
• For the best surface finish results use a clean, damp trowel,
  
• Avoid polishing and aim for a matt finish,
  
• Gypsum-based plasterwork must always be thoroughly dry before decorating, although a coat of permeable paint can be applied in the interim.
• Tiles up to 20kg/m2 can be applied directly to the Thistle Browning, except where the system includes a bonding agent.
