Armatex High Build Render

Armatex High Build is a 100% Acrylic Render, filled with light weight insulating aggregates. The product is used in place of traditional sand/cement render for the levelling of flush jointed block work, Hebel and raked brick prior to the application of an acrylic texture. The product can be applied at a thickness of up to 15 mm in one single application without the normal shrinkage cracks, soft corners and drumminess associated with traditional sand and cement renders.

The render is a water reducible compound that is supplied ready for use straight from the drum apart from the required addition of between, 3%-5% and up to 15% cement by weight for exterior use.

The product can be applied by either hawk and trowel or mortar spray devices and is suitable for application to most correctly prepared mineral based construction surfaces, including, well adhered “gloss free” painted surfaces.

The final result is a light weight, water resistant render that keys with an extremely strong bond to the substrate, providing an excellent impact resistance surface with good flexibility.
