Overview:

Toupret's Exterior Ready to Use Skimcoat Filler is a lightweight, ready-mixed formula for smoothing rough and damaged masonry and render. It applies using a filling blade, trowel, or airless spray machine, covering large surface areas with a smooth, paint-ready finish. The formula bonds to both new and renovated substrates - concrete, brick, stone, and breeze block.

The filler applies up to 5mm thick, with a coverage rate of 1.37kg per m² at 1mm depth. Once dry, it resists cracking and allows the substrate to breathe. Overcoat with any water-based masonry or conventional paint within 24 to 48 hours.

The product conforms to BS EN 16566:2014. A 12-month guarantee applies when stored in its original packaging, away from sunlight and frost. Do not apply below 5°C or above 35°C, or at a relative humidity over 80%.

• Overcoating old textured surfaces, gypsum plaster, and existing renders.
• Preparing exterior surfaces prior to water-based masonry or conventional paint.
• Spray application on large commercial or residential exterior façades.

How to Use

• Prepare the substrate: Check the surface is hard, cohesive, clean, sound, and dry. Prepare as per current trade practices. This filler cannot replace render on large structures.

• Check conditions: Do not apply below 5°C or above 35°C, or at a relative humidity over 80%.

• Apply the filler: Spread using a filling knife, trowel, or coating blade. For spray application, use an airless machine with a minimum flow rate of 5L/min and a nozzle size between 5.35 and 6.35.

• Build up thickness: Apply up to 5mm thick per coat. The typical recommended application thickness is 1.5mm. Apply a second coat once the first is hard and dry to the touch.

• Allow to dry: Leave for 24 to 48 hours before overcoating. Drying times vary with coat thickness, substrate, and ambient conditions.

• Overcoat: Apply any water-based masonry or conventional paint once dry. When using polyurethane or epoxy solvent-based paints, prime first with a water-based exterior paint. Clean tools with water after use.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• How long does exterior skimcoat filler take to dry before painting?
  Allow 24 to 48 hours before overcoating. The exact drying time depends on coat thickness, the substrate type, and the ambient temperature and humidity.

• Can exterior skimcoat filler be applied by spray machine?
  Yes. Use an airless spray machine with a minimum flow rate of 5L/min. Recommended nozzle sizes are between 5.35 and 6.35.

• What surfaces can exterior skimcoat filler be used on?
  It bonds to concrete, cellular concrete, shuttered concrete, cement mortars and renders, breeze blocks, bricks, stone, glass, and glazed tiles - painted or unpainted.

• How thick can exterior skimcoat filler be applied?
  Up to 5mm per coat. The typical recommended application thickness is 1.5mm. Build up multiple coats if a greater overall depth is needed.

• Can exterior skimcoat filler be used directly under solvent-based paints?
  Not directly. If overcoating with polyurethane or epoxy solvent-based paints, first apply a water-based exterior paint as a primer coat.
