Application

  • Suitable for use with most render spray machines and can also be hand applied.
  • Particularly suitable for larger projects where the speed of machine application can offer time saving benefits.

Description

Silicone K1 is a water repellent, cement based, polymer modified, self-coloured render, requiring only the addition of water and ten minutes mixing time. If applied as per manufacturer’s instructions, Silicone K1 will provide an attractive, low maintenance finish.


It is specifically designed to incorporate the benefits of silicone water repellents into a cement-based render system. Silicone adds a high water repellent quality, while allowing water vapour to pass freely through the render, therefore the amount of dirt adhering to the surface is greatly reduced, ensuring a freshly rendered appearance for a prolonged period of time.


Features and benefits:

  • Water repellent.
  • Fine texture finish.
  • available in an extensive colour range.
  • K Rend Silicone K1 is Kitemarked and CE marked to BS EN 998-1:2010.
  • ISO 9001 approved.
  • BBA and NSAI approved
