PRORend Rapid

ProRend Rapid

Based on the general properties of ProRend Float, ProRend Rapid is a fast drying and curing lightweight lime sand cement render basecoat.

Ideal Substrates

  • 7kN blockwork
  • 3.5kN blockwork
  • New sand and cement

Note that Rapid should not be combined with Float in any circumstances.

Features & Benefits

  • Can be finished after just 2 hours (approximate)
  • Low surface tension between render and substrate due to lightweight additives
  • Acts as a thermal insulant after curing
  • Hand or machine applied
  • Ideal substitute for traditional sand and cement allowing in excess of 15mm application in one coat
  • Suitable basecoat for all ProRend decorative renders or masonry paint
  • Can be smooth finished, sponge textured or keyed to receive a subsequent coat

Do I need ProMesh with this?

Subject to the written specification, ProRend Rapid is compatible with ProMesh Grade 5

Technical Datasheet

Description/ Useage-

ProRend Rapid is suitable for application on mineral building substrates and aerated concrete internally or externally.
Colour- Grey
Application-  
Site Work-

Scaffolding must be tied independently to allow uninterrupted application. Any faults in the structure must be rectified.
Site conditions-

Do not apply when substrate/ air temperature is below 5oC or above 30oC. Protect areas before and after application.
Substrates-

ProRend Rapid can be applied on to all sound supporting masonry

backgrounds. They need to be free from frost, dust, loose particles, damp and other pollution which can interfere.
Preparation-

All surfaces must be dry, sound, clean, reasonably smooth and free from loose material, oil and grease. Protect fresh render work against weather influences.
Render Application-

Mix dry ProRend Rapid with tap water. Apply by hand or machine in one or several layers, depending on the desired thickness. Allow every layer to harden and dry. Each layer must not be thicker than 30 mm. Protect fresh plaster against rapid drying. Allow minimum layer thickness of 15 mm and a maximum thickness of 50 mm.
Coverage-

~ 1.25 kg/m2 for each mm thickness.

25 kg ProRend Rapid mixed with ~ 7l water, supplies ~23l

fresh plaster: ~1.3 m2/ bag
Curing/ Drying-

Curing with clean water may be necessary during rapid drying conditions.
Protection-

Cover parts which do not have to be treated with paper and tape. Remove directly after applying the primer.
Cleaning-

material should not be emptied into any drainage system.
Packaging-

25 kg paper bag

40 bags per pallet
Storage-

ProRend Float can be kept for ~6 months if stored in clean, dry conditions.
