Ultra Kote™/Onecoat ESR -1471
Description
UltraKote is a proprietary mixture of Portland Cement, fiber and proprietary additives. UltraKote is factory blended and packaged in paper bags or delivered in bulk to jobsites.
Uses
One-step base coat applied over woven wire, metal lath and prepared concrete masonry. UltraKote can also be used as a surface leveler or a scratch and brown.
Coverage
Approximate coverages are as follows, using ASTM C144 plaster sand:
- 80 lbs. UltraKote to 240 lbs. sand @ 3.8" thick= 80 ft.
- 80 lbs. UltraKote to 240 lbs. sand @ 1/2" thick= 70 ft.
- 80 lbs. UltraKote to 200 lbs. sand @ 3/8" thick= 70 ft.
- 80 lbs. UltraKote to 200 lbs. sand at 1/2" thick= 60 ft.
(coverage will vary depending on substrate)
Mixing
To begin, place 2/3 of the required potable water into mechanical mixer. Add 200-240 lbs. sand. Add 1 bag of UltraKote, then add remaining water and mix for at least 5 minutes.
Limitations
Use UltraKote when surface and ambient conditions are above 38¿ (13¿c) and below 110¿ (37.5¿c) during application and cure time. UltraKote is not recommended for use over painted surfaces or stucco accessories. Expansion joints are required every 144 ft. UltraKote is not a finish product. Weather conditions may affect drying time and workability.
Surface Preparation
Woven wire and metal lath must be securely fastened to wall assembly. Surfaces must be clean and free of bond- inhibiting materials. Use UltraKote UltraBond when applicable.
Application
UItraKote should be applied at a minimum thickness of 3/8", not to exceed 1/2" in one application. Enough material should be applied to cover all surfaces uniformly. UltraKote Ultra-Bond can be used to increase tensile and flexural strength. Always work to a wet edge to avoid cold joints.
Curing/Drying
UltraKote must be kept moist for at least 48 hours. Start light fogging after initial set, 1-2 hours. Fully cured in 28 days.
Clean Up
Clean tools and equipment with water immediately after use.
