Description
PlasterPro Block Grip is a ready-mix cementitious mortar that requires only the addition of water on site. It is made of Portland cement, lime, graded sand and additives for improved workability, bonding and water retention. When mixed with water, PlasterPro Block Grip produces a workable mortar that generates, once cured, a high adhesive power between blocks.

Substrate Preparation
Product Preparation
- Add PlasterPro Block Grip bag of 50 kg into a container of 10 litre of clean water.
- Mix until a uniform lump free consistency mix achieved.
- Leave the mix to stand for 5 minutes and remix before uses.
- Use low speed mechanical mixer (200-300 rpm) with a suitable mixing paddle.
- The mixture remains workable for one hour after mixing at 25°C.
Product Application
- Fix the first layer of PlasterPro Block Grip on concrete slab with traditional cementitious mortar. Apply a layer of PlasterPro Block Grip mix to the side face of the block using toothed trowel. Place the new block to the mortar bed and apply pressure till the mortar oozes.
- Apply PlasterPro Block Grip in thin layer to enable the continuity of the thermos-insulation of the AAC block. Pay attention that the applied layer does not form a superficial film. If this occurs, apply a fresh new layer.
- Leave a space of about 2 cm between the top of block wall and the bottom of slab or beam in order to avoid formation of cracks along the wall. The cavity should be filled with compressible material.
- Plastering could be applied to AAC block walls after 24 hours of fixing the blocks. Use PlasterPro Rushcoat BL to apply a key coat before plastering.
Curing:
Protect the newly applied material from sunshine and wind. The new material has to be cured with water for at least three days by spraying 3 to 4 times daily.
Cleaning:
Clean with water before the product dries
Others
- Try to avoid application during the hottest times of the day, and in direct sunlight.
- In hot weather use cold water to bring the mixed material temperature to <30°C.
- In cold weather use warm water to raise the mixed material temperature to >10°C.
- Do not add water or fresh mortar to material which has begun to set. Just remix again for 1-2 minutes.
- Do not proceed with the application when rainfall is imminent unless in a sheltered or protected situation.
- The product should not be exposed to moving water during application or prior to initial set.
- In hot weather, the surface receiving PlasterPro Block Grip should be brushed with some water immediately prior to application.
- Not suitable for fix concrete normal block.
- Not suitable to bond fresh concrete to old concrete
- Care should be taken in order not to mount blocks if a dry skin has already formed on the freshly applied mortar
- Keep 2cm. gap at the topend of the well below the slabs or the beam. Fill the gap with comprisable material.
- The possible humidity rise is expected in the floor, it is recommended to apply proper damp course coating.
- Mix only sufficient material that can be applied using available labour and equipment to ensure a continuous and uninterrupted application.
