wet mixed mortar is then applied on the walls using trowel. Any caked and set
mortar should not be applied.

 Apply the MP13 directly over the concrete masonry block walls in single coat at
internal areas (10-20mm) and in double coat at external areas (15-20mm).

 On the prepared internal/external concrete surfaces (cast-in-situ or precast)

MP13 is applied in single coat (10-20mm).

 The plaster shall be applied to the required thickness and adequate drying time
shall be allowed for each undercoat prior to the application of the following coat.

 Finish the render plaster to medium fine finish using plastic/wooden trowel.
Over toweling and smoothing of the render/plaster surface to be avoided in the
final finishing.

 Final coat should be made in a true plane using an Aluminum straight edge.

All wall faces finish shall be made plane and true to line in all directions and that all

angles are straight, true and plumb.
