LEVELLING COMPOUNDS Ultra-fast hardening self-levelling fibrereinforced smoothing compound WHERE TO USE Fiberplan is used for interior levelling, smoothing and removing differences in thickness from 3 to 10 mm on properly fixed timber substrates and wooden boards, where good resistance to loads and traffic is required. Fiberplan is suitable for wheeled chair traffic and for underfloor heating systems. Fiberplan can only be used internally. to 10 mm per coat without shrinkage, cracking and crazing, and develops very high compressive and flexural strength, as well as resistance to indentation and abrasion. It is possible to proceed with the installation of floorings approximately 24 hours after spreading Fiberplan, depending on the ambient temperature and humidity, regardless of the thickness. Some application examples • Smoothing old and new timber floors, floor boards, chip-board panels, plywood, parquet. RECOMMENDATIONS • Do not add more water to the mix that has already • Smoothing cementitious, terrazzo, old ceramic tiles and natural stone substrates. • Do not add lime, cement or gypsum to the mix. TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS Fiberplan is a grey coloured powder consisting of special cements with rapid setting and hydration, synthetic fibres, graded silica sand, resins and special admixtures prepared according to a formula developed in the MAPEI research laboratories. Fiberplan, when mixed with water, produces a very smooth easily workable paste, perfectly self-levelling, with high adhesion to the substrate and extremely rapid drying. Fiberplan can be spread in thicknesses from 3 mm • Do not use for exterior levelling work. • Do not use on substrates that are subject to continuous rising damp. • Do not apply another coat of Fiberplan after the previous one has completely dried: in this case first apply a primer based on Primer G (1 part Primer G to 3 parts water). • Do not use on metal surfaces.

APPLICATION PROCEDURE Preparing the substrate Supports must be dry, sound, free of dust and loose parts, paint, wax, oil, rust and traces of gypsum. Timber substrates must be perfectly clean and solidly fixed to the substrates. The moisture in wood substrates must be at a level which is typical for equilibrium with the ambient conditions. Where the floor is formed by wooden boards with open joints, they must be sealed with Nivorapid + Latex Plus before the application of Fiberplan. Having sanded the substrate and removed the dust, prime the wood substrate with Mapeprim SP or Eco Prim...
