Kal-Mesh Veneer Plaster Tape Treatment Method

  1. Do not use self-adhering mesh.
  2. Center and secure Kal-Mesh over all joints and interior angles with 1/4” or 5/16” staples.
  3. Position staples a maximum of 24” apart as follows:
    1. Joints: at alternate edges for the run from end to end and directly opposite one another at either end.
    2. Angles: along ceiling edge only for wall-to-ceiling angles. Along one edge for wall-to-wall angles.
  4. After the first staples are placed at the end of a joint or angle, pull unstapled Kal-Mesh as stapling proceeds to assure that it will lie flat against the Kal-Kore.
  5. Pre-treat all joints and Kal-beads with Kal-Kote, Uni-Kal or X-KALibur Plaster. Tightly trowel over joint line in both directions to prevent voids, feathering to a maximum width of about 6”.
  6. Allow the treated joints to set prior to general plaster application.
