Unilit Natural Hydraulic Lime Finishing Mortars.

Unilit 35N Finish.
A traditional, dry, premixed mineral undercoat and finishing mortar based on hydraulic, naturally pure and selected lime, characterised by a high plasticity, slow but strong bonding and a low salt content.
Unilit 35N is very vapour permeable and is completely compatible with the Unilit system as an undercoat or as a finishing layer, for internal and external use providing that excessive damp or salt problems are not prevalent. Recommended for the renovation of old buildings.
Where applied as a finishing coat Unilit 35N is applied by steel trowel a minimum 4 - 6mm thickness and can be sponged or wood floated to the desired coarse, open textured finish. The product must be decorated with a protective lime based coating to make the system weatherproof.
A colour finish can be applied with a lime paint - Corical - Lime wash and lime paint finishes are available from Telling Lime. Alternatively a through coloured finish - Unilit 65f/65M/65N or a Telling Cori polished finish can be applied.

Product reference: Unilit 35N.
Thickness: 4 - 6 mm overall.
Finish: Seek advice from Telling. Sponged or floated to the desired finish.
Application: Mix the mortar with clean water - 4.5 to 5.25 litres of water to 30 kg of powder depending on the temperature and substrate. Mix manually or mechanically for 3 to 5 minutes.
Apply manually or mechanically to a dry or damp substrate in a 4 - 6mm thick layer by trowel. If the substrate is too dry, dampen down the surface prior to overcoating. Do not apply in temperatures below 5°C or above 40°C. The mortar remains workable for 2 hours and dries in 24-48 hours. Protect from frost for 48 to 72 hours.
