Coverage
Coverage will vary dependent on the texture of the background and the application thickness of the product. As a guide, an 11kg bag of Kelmore Repair Mortar will provide the following approximate coverage:

Backgrounds must be sufficiently dry and strong enough to carry the total weight being applied. All surfaces must be clean, sound and free from contaminants that could inhibit adhesion, such as dust, dirt, oil, grease, laitance, and curing agents.
Mixing
An 11kg bag of Kelmore Repair Mortar should be mixed with approximately 2.1 litres of clean, cold water. If mixing smaller batches, the mixing ratio by volume is approximately 3½ parts powder to 1 part water. Pour the water into a clean bucket before gradually adding the powder. Mix thoroughly until a smooth, slump-free consistency is achieved.
Mix in the ratio 3½ : 1
(3½ parts powder to 1 part water)Application
Kelmore Repair Mortar can be applied from 2mm to 50mm. Apply the mortar to the wall or floor using a steel trowel ensuring sufficient pressure is applied so the mortar keys into the background. Where required, the mortar can be left proud, and on firming, the excess can be trimmed off (mortar will firm after approximately 15 to 20 minutes at 20ºC). Once firm, the mortar can be finished with a wet trowel to smooth and enhance the surface finish if required.
