Stopgap 700 - Smoothing Compound

STOPGAP 700 is a fast drying, fibre reinforced self-levelling smoothing comound.

STOPGAP 700 allows resilient floorcoverings to be installed in as little as three hours at 20°C, making it ideal for fast-track installations and minimising downtime.

STOPGAP 700 is dimensionally stable and is supplied as a pre-blended dry powder which is designed for application between 2–10 mm. It is protein-free which allows it to be used in biologically sensitive areas.

STOPGAP 700 can be used to encapsulate wire heating systems over plywood up to a maximum thickness of 10 mm.

Priming:

• It is essential to prime absorbent subfloors with dilute STOPGAP P131 primer to prevent uncontrolled rapid drying of the compound.
• Steel surfaces must be primed with an appropriate epoxide resin deck plate primer or STOPGAP F77 before priming with neat STOPGAP P131.
• The primer should be used in accordance with instructions printed on the bottle and must be allowed to dry before applying the smoothing compound.
