FAQs
What is JK Wall Putty ?

JK Wall Putty is a White Cement based fine powder which provides an ideal finishing for concrete / cement plastered walls and ceilings. It provides an ideal base for painting and damp resistant smooth finish for further application of all kinds of paints. (It is very important to understand that damp resistance means resistance to water in humid air and not physical water contact / leakages).
What is the covering capacity of JK Wall Putty?

Maximum thickness of 2 coats is 1.5 mm with an approx.. achievable coverage of 35 sqft./mm/kg of JK Wall Putty. However, actual coverage achieved depends on the base surface condition and finished thickness.
After how many days of application of JK wall putty, can paint be applied on the wall ?

Painting can be done after 3 or more days after application of JK Wall Putty but it should be ensured that JK wall putty is completely dry before applying paint.
How should the surface be prepared for JK wall putty application if the wall is showing signs of efflorescence / salt deposition?

If due to salty water or salt in sand / bricks, problem of efflorescence is observed then plastered surface should be treated with mild acid like citric acid before application of JK Wall Putty. Otherwise, wall putty will not stick to the wall and problem of flaking may arise. After 30 minutes of treating the surface with mild acid, surface should be washed thoroughly so that no acid remains on the wall. After drying properly, JK wall putty can be applied as normal. This treatment should be done under proper supervision.
What is reason of poor adhesion and flaking of JK wall putty near skirting?

During grinding of floor and skirting, slurry is produced. It sticks to the wall and becomes hard if not cleaned properly with wire brush before application of JK wall putty. The putty applied on surfaces will not give good result. Therefore, before applying JK wall putty near skirting it should be cleaned properly (with wire brush) and washed thoroughly to avoid flaking and poor adhesion, so that slurry deposited on the wall during grinding is removed totally. After drying the wall, putty can be applied as normal.
What is the reason of Peeling (Bubbles on wall) from base surface?

There are many reasons for (bubble) peel off. To obtain extra smooth and zero undulation finish, applicators exceeds the specified limit of thickness of JK wall putty film and also because when second coat is applied over freshly (poorly set) applied first coat of JK wall putty. The other reason could be that wall may have been painted earlier with cement paint or other paint which is water repellent. This results in reduced adhesion to wall and consequent spalling.
