  • Allover Base - Textured Base Coat For Allover System

Allover Base Textured Base Coat For Allover System

Regular price From £24.00

The Allover base is a product developed to serve as an anchoring primer and a textured basecoat at the same time. Allover Base contains fibrous additives that give this basecoat, a higher than average resistant to cracking, making it more flexible that a standard, powder-based, basecoat. It also means that it can be applied without the need for a mesh to provide additional rigidity. We would still recommend however, that if a surface has high risk of movement, the mesh is still used, as it will further strengthen the application. Thanks to its great bonding, Allover Base does not need a primer before being applied (although one can be used on particularly non porous, or slippery surfaces).

Finally, another aspect that sets Allover Base apart from being a standard basecoat, is that due to its great texture, as well as colourability, it can be used as its own finish! It is possible to do a wall application of Allover, that includes simply, 2 coats of Allover Base, followed by 2 coats of Allover Top.

Please note that the each of the Allover Products, has been designed to be used as part of the Allover System. Therefore, significant savings are to be made from purchasing the complete kit, over individual items. We strongly encourage you to look at the available kits HERE.

Disclaimers

  • Although Allover Base was designed to be applied without the use of a primer, extreme conditions on highly smooth or slippery surfaces may call for the use of a specialized primer for non-porous surfaces such as Prolink.

  • Please ensure the product is mixed with a drill and paddle before using, this will activate the fibres that allow the material to hold well together.

  • Our own experience also suggests that where possible, combining the Base with the mesh, is still the stronger, more durable way to go. The most important thing, is to accurately assess the substrate, and if there is any doubt about its solidity, the mesh is highly encouraged.

  • Please note that the coverage of Allover Base has been tested at 10sqm per 20kg bucket, based on 2 coats, without mesh, on a smooth surface. The use of mesh, as well as well as beads, and uneven surfaces, can increased the consumption of material used. It is important to measure accurately the area that is to be covered, and where surfaces are uneven, or need filling, we recommend carrying this work out first with a more cost effective product, in order to avoid disappointment with the coverage of this material.
