Product Overview


Description
  • Used to prefill joints, to embed joint tape, and to conceal joints, fasteners and trim accessories on gypsum wallboard as well as for interior patching and repair work
  • Specially formulated to harden with very little shrinkage 20 minutes after mixing
  • This enables drywall joints to be taped and first coated with Lite Sand 90, allowed to harden, and then finished with ProRoc Ready-Mixed All-Purpose Drywall Compound, all in the same day
PRECAUTIONS:
  • Do not use in mechanical tools
  • Do not mix with any other material
  • Use only clean water and containers
  • Application tools and mixing equipment should be thoroughly cleaned between each batch
  • Contaminants can adversely affect the compound's working life
  • Discard the compound when it begins to harden
  • Adding more water will not prolong the working life
  • Maintain a minimum 13 degrees C (55 degrees F) room and material temperature during application and until completely dry
  • A relative humidity between 20% and 70% is required for proper drying of this material
  • When compound first hardens, it is still wet inside and should not be painted until it is completely dry throughout
  • A minimum drying time of 24 hours is required before painting
  • Compound will not adhere to smooth non-porous surfaces
  • Keep out of reach of children
FEATURES:
  • Specially formulated to be easy to sand
  • Lighter than regular setting compounds providing similar coverage
  • Low shrinkage for trouble-free joint taping
  • Mixes to a smooth, easily applied compound
COVERAGE:
  • Approximate coverage is 26 kg of powder per 100 m2 (1000 ft 2) of drywall panel
  • 50 sq.ft. of drywall when used for joints
STORAGE:
  • Rotate stock to avoid aging problems
  • Use within 60 days of delivery
  • Store in a dry place
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
  • Wallboard joints are normally finished using three coats of compound; the first to embed the tape, the second to cover the tape, and the third to finish the joint
  • Can be sued for the first and second coats
  • ProRoc Ready-Mixed All-Purpose Drywall Compound is used for the third coat
  • Apply the first coat to the joint in a band about 64 mm (2-1/2") wide
  • Tape over joint and embed with a broad knife
  • Allow to dry for 90 minutes
  • Apply second coat feathering it 50 mm (2") beyond first coat
  • Allow to dry as above
  • Apply two coats of compound to depressions made by fasteners and to corner beads and other trim accessories
  • Allow to dry as above between coats
  • Apply third coat to joints, fastener depressions, corner bead and other trim accessories using ProRoc Ready-Mixed All-Purpose Drywall Compound
  • Allow to dry for 24 hours before sanding
  • Use 120 grit sandpaper and a hand or pole sander
  • Do not sand the surface of the wallboard paper
  • For best results, apply a primer-sealer prior to painting or wallpapering
  • For severe lighting conditions, or if a gloss paint is to be applied as the finish coat, it is recommended that the entire surface of the wallboard receive a skim coat of compound before applying the primer-sealer
  • This will assist in equalizing the rate of absorption of the gloss paint and help to avoid flashing at the joints
MIXING:
  • Mix only as much compound as can be applied in 45-60 minutes
  • To prepare contents of a 15 kg bag, pour approximately 8 litres of clean, cold water into a clean pail of suitable size
  • Add compound to water
  • Do not stir too vigorously or for too long
  • Excessive mixing will shorten the working life
  • The correct consistency is a smooth creamy mixture
DRYING TIME:
  • Approximately 24 hours depending on temperature and relative humidity
