Application
Fixing :
Fix boards with decorative side out to receive joint treatment or a skim
plaster finish. Lightly butt boards together. Never force boards
into position. Install fixings not closer than 13mm from cut edges
and 10mm from bound edges. Position cut edges to internal angles
whenever possible, removing paper burrs with
fine sandpaper. Stagger horizontal and vertical board joints between
layers by a minimum of 600mm. Locate boards to the centre line of
framing where this supports board edges or ends.
Plastering :
The face (ivory) of Gyproc Habito can be plastered with
either Thistle BoardFinish, Thistle MultiFinish, Thistle DuraFinish or
Thistle SprayFinish plasters. There should be the minimum of delay
between completion of the lining and the commencement of plastering.
Jointing :
Gyproc jointing materials produce durable joint reinforcement and a smooth, continuous, crack-resistant surface ready for priming and final decoration. A number of jointing specifications are available to suit the board type, method of application, and site preference.
Decoration :
After the joint treatment has dried, decoration, including any decorator’s preparatory work, should follow with the minimum delay.
Cutting :
This product may be cut using a plasterboard saw or by scoring with a sharp knife and snapping the board over a straight edge. Holes for switch or socket boxes should be cut out before the boards are fixed using a utility saw or sharp knife. When cutting boards, power and hand tools should be used with care and in accordance with the manufacturers’ recommendations. Power tools should only be used by people who have been instructed and trained to use them safely. Appropriate personal protective equipment should be used.
