Facade putty

One of the ways of finishing the facades is applying putty. There is a great variety of kinds of this facing material, but we'll talk about acrylic waterproof façade shpatlevke type bark beetle. What does this convoluted name mean? Facade putty bark beetle is an elastic plaster that is used for both internal and external wall finishing. The name is due to its appearance, which in texture resembles the bark of a tree eaten by a beetle. This effect is achieved due to scars, which are formed due to special granules added to the mixture. Facade putty bark beetle can be purchased in dry form, in a bag, and in ready-made, diluted in a bucket. And, you can paint the finishing material yourself, or you can buy already painted in the color you need.

Acrylic waterproof façade filler

Acrylic waterproof façade putty is widely used in construction. The main qualities of this material are plasticity and strength. Due to its technical characteristics, acrylic façade putty is used for finishing the exterior and interior. It is applicable in those cases where the use of other materials is ineffective or not possible, for example, wall leveling, finishing putty of the facade, elimination of surface defects.

Technical characteristics of facade putty

In addition to such positive properties of acrylic waterproof façade filler, as plasticity and water resistance, it is also possible to distinguish the possibility of applying a working surface in a wide temperature range, from + 5 ° С to + 25 ° С. If the ambient temperature exceeds + 23 ° C and the humidity is 50%, then acceleration or deceleration of the solidification of the material should be taken into account. Acrylic putty bark beetle for facade works is not combustible and safe material. For finishing the facade, the material consumption is calculated at the rate of 1.3-1.5 kg / m2 / mm.

Among the positive characteristics can be distinguished ease of application and grinding, short processing time and easy distribution on the surface, resistance to cracking, the possibility of creating different textures due to the polymer microfibers contained in the structure.

The principle of applying an acrylic waterproof façade putty to a bark beetle is not difficult. From tools it is necessary to have a grater or spatula from stainless steel for application, a grater for structuring, a drill with a nozzle a mixer and a bucket. Apply the material manually. The thickness of the layer is observed according to the level of the pebbles of the fractions, which are contained in the putty.
