Product description and benefits

PLACOL mortar is a plaster-based product that allows for the indoor installation of plasterboards and filling of non-adjacent boards.

Application

  • Apply 10 cm dots on the back of the board, spaced 50 cm horizontally and 40 cm vertically.

  • Glue the plasterboards to the support.
  • The application thickness is 5 to 15 mm depending on the flatness of the support. If the supports are not plumb, correct them by first gluing strips of plasterboard.
