Premium Basecoat / Adhesive 25kg

Premium Basecoat is breathable, high strength and durable. EWI-225 is EWIPro’s finest basecoat adhesive, and can be used for a range of solutions. For example, this product is ideal as a basecoat/adhesive for Mineral Wool, Kingspan K5 and Wood Fibre insulation boards, or as a render-only solution for a range of substrates, including render carrier board. The adhesive contains white Portland cement and a high concentration of polymer-modified binders – making it stronger than other basecoat adhesives, such as EWI-220. Once the basecoat has dried it provides an incredibly strong and flexible reinforcement layer; we therefore highly recommend this product for ‘render only’ systems. You can use our Premium Basecoat for the following two purposes: An adhesive used to create the reinforcement basecoat layer in render only or Mineral Wool, EPS, Kingspan K5 and Wood Fibre EWI systems An adhesive used to fix Mineral Wool (Rockwool) to a substrate. Premium Basecoat is prepared in the same way regardless of whether it is being used as a basecoat or an adhesive for fixing the Mineral Wool insulation boards to the substrate. The Premium Basecoat comes as a dry mix in 25kg so needs to be mixed with clean, cold water ( >5.9 litres) prior to use. We suggest filling a large bucket with the correct quantities of water prior to adding the dry basecoat mixture. Use a paddle mix to mix the basecoat with water until you have achieved an even consistency mortar. Leave the bucket for 5-10 minutes after mixing, and then mix again before using the adhesive.
