Antique Wall Putty” is a water resistant white cement based putty ideal for use on concrete/mortar walls (Internal and External) and ceilings. It fills the fine pores of mortar/concrete walls and ceilings and provides a white, smooth and dry surface, essential for painting. “Antique Wall Putty” can be applied even on moist surface (Internal/External). “Antique Wall Putty” has more adhesive strength, durability and enhances the life of paints. “Antique Wall Putty” though white cement based, does not require water curing.

Salient features of “Antique Wall Putty”

• Being a cementitious material it has better adhesiveness and durability.
• “Antique Wall Putty” can be applied on both interior and exterior surfaces.
• “Antique Wall Putty” does not require any curing.
• It is water resistant and can be applied on moist surface. It is recommended that two coats of Birla
White cement wash be done before application of “Antique Wall Putty”.
• “Antique Wall Putty” gives a smooth and glossy finish.
• Any kind of paint or distemper can be applied on it.
• No need to apply any kind of primer on it before application of paint/distemper.

• It is in dry powder form and does not produce any kind of unpleasant smell at the time of application.

Application Procedure

Remove all loosely adhering material from the wall surface with the help of emery stone, putty blade or wire brush and clean water. The substrate should be clean, free from dust, grease and loose materials. Dry and absorbent surfaces should be moistened with sufficient quantity of clean water.

Mix “Antique Wall Putty” with 30-35% clean water slowly to make paste. Continue the mixing for 10-15 minutes till a uniform paste is formed. After thoroughly mixing “Antique Wall Putty” apply the
first coat on already moistened wall surface from bottom to upward direction uniformly with the help of putty blade. This would ensure less wastage and proper finish. After drying of first coat of putty just rub
the surface gently with west sponge or rub the surface very gently with the putty blade in order to remove the loose particles. Allow the surface to dry for atleast 3 hours and then apply second coat of putty. Leave
the surface to dry completely. After drying of second coat remove marks if any with the help of moist sponge or rub the surface very gently with the putty blade. Leave the surface to dry preferably for overnight. Always prepare a required quantity of putty and use it within 2-3 hrs. of mixing with water The total thickness of the coats should be limited to maximum 1.5mm. It is not essential to rub the surface done with “Antique Wall Putty”, however if you need to remove unevenness before applying any kind of paint/distemper, gently level the walls/ceiling surface with very fine water proof emery paper of not less that 500 number to get a glossy white surface.

Precautions During Application
Mixing of “Antique Wall Putty” is very important and hence extreme care is to be taken for proper and thorough mixing with hand or mechanical stirrer in order to get best results. “Antique Wall Putty”
should be done over fully cured surface. It is recommended not to rub “Antique Wall Putty” strongly and harshly with rough emery paper. This breaks the film formed over “Antique Wall Putty”, which
decreases the water repellency properties. The total thickness of the coat should be limited to maximum 1.5mm. In case of fresh concrete/mortar surface it is recommended that two coats of Birla White cement
wash be done before application of “Antique Wall Putty”.

Coverage
The coverage area of “Antique Wall Putty” on smooth normal mortar wall is 20 to 25 Sq. Ft/Kg/mm in double coat. The coverage area, however, will depend upon the quality of the substrate.

Note
Generally the cause of efflorescence on the walls surface is the brick masonry, which is due to the quality of bricks, sand and water, If the effect of efflorescence on the brick masonry seems to be very high then proper
care should be taken to control the efflorescence. The efflorescence problem on brick masonry if exists impairs the bonding of “Antique Wall Putty” as is with any other product.

Packing
“Antique Wall Putty” is available in 1Kg, 20Kg And 40Kg Packs.
