Capaver Capacoll GK

Substrates

The substrate must be solid/stable, dry, clean, even and free from all substances that may prevent good adhesion. Follow Technical Information No. 650. 
In Germany: Follow supplementary information given in VOB, part C, DIN 18363, section 3.
On substrates with contrasting colours: One previously applied priming coat of Capadecor DecoGrund or Caparol Haftgrund.

Method of Application

Applicable with paint brush, roller and high-performance airless spray equipment.

Airless Application:
Spray angle: 40° - 50°
Nozzle size: 0.017" - 0.019"
Pressure: 180 - 200 bar
Dilute to spray consistency with approx. 10 - 20 % of tap/potable water or use undiluted CapaColl VK.

For bonding AkkordVlies Z130 K or Z150 K the airless applied product should be rolled over with a lambskin roller (12 to 14 mm piles) to obtain an even and proper coat of glue.

Bonding:
Apply CapaColl GK liberally and evenly onto the substrate in the width of approx. 1 to 3 lengths, using lambskin roller or airless equipment. Apply the wall covering material without delay and carefully press on with a wallpaper scraper or roller, avoiding blistering. On slightly absorbent substrates and at low temperature or high relative humidity allow CapaColl GK to flash off sufficiently before applying closely woven and laminated glass fabrics.

Surface Coating System

Application:
Always follow the corresponding Technical Information before applying the wall covering.

Consumption

Glass Fabrics:
Finely textured glass fabrics and fleeces: Approx. 150 g/m²
Medium textured: Approx. 150 - 250 g/m²
Roughly textured: Approx. 250 - 300 g/m²

Determine the exact amount of material required by coating a test area on site.

Application Conditions

Lower Temperature Limit for Application and Drying:
+ 5 °C for product, substrate and ambient air.

Drying/Drying Time

At +20 °C and 65 % relative humidity surface-dry and recoatable after approx. 6 - 12 hours. Thoroughly dry after approx. 3 days. Lower temperatures and higher relative humidity extend the drying time.

Note

Dilute CapaColl GK with 20 % of tap (potable) water for bonding finely woven glass fabrics like 1100 K and 1100 VB. Therefore dilute CapaColl GK in the standard container and apply with a short pile lambskin roller, then allow to flash off sufficiently. The alternative product CapaColl VK can be used undiluted.
Bonding of FantasticFleece and Capaver AkkordVliese: High material consumption may lead to the opening of edgings and should be avoided. For this purpose the use of CapaColl VK is advisable.
Reworking of gypsum fillers/surfacers: Provide for fast drying by means of sufficient ventilation and temperature to avoid swelling, blistering and spallings caused by long-lasting exposure to moisture.
In Germany: Follow Data Sheet No. 2 "Verspachtelung von Gipsplatten" (Filling gypsum boards), Bundesverband der Gips- und Gipsplattenindustrie (German Association of Gypsum Plasterboard Industry).
