British Gypsum 10L ThistleBond-it is a high performance plaster bonding agent specially formulated for use on smooth and/or low suction backgrounds. Thistlebond-it provides a mechanical key by means of coarse aggregate particles. It is used in one coat only and allowed to dry before plastering.

Key Features

• For use on smooth backgrounds e.g. concrete with thistle bonding coat, or for re-skimming.
• No dilution - so no scope for errors, no time spent mixing, no confusion on site.
• Always used in one coat only - so no decisions to take about background porosity etc.
• Contains fine aggregates for better mechanical, as well as chemical adhesion.
• Green in colour - so it's easy to see where it's been applied.
• Plastered when dry - so no difficult timing to get right.
• The only product recommended for use with thistle bonding coat plaster.

Application
Preferred means of application is by roller, thistlebond-it is coloured light green to allow for easy identification of backgrounds to which it has been applied. Typically, once the thistlebond-it has dried, gyproc bonding coat plaster of 10mm thickness is applied and then finished with 2mm of gyproc skimcoat or gyproc finish plaster. If the surface flatness allows it, gyproc finish plasters can be directly applied to thistlebond-it.
