Technical specifications

This product has no technical data sheet: for any question about sizes, texture or compatibility, request information.

How is it used?

1. Spread the mortar over the surface to be textured.

2. Using the EST sprayer, apply EST-Desmoldeante onto the mortar and onto the stamp, until the surfaces are completely covered.

3. While the mortar is still soft, press the stamp onto the surface, holding it by the fabric handle, and repeat section by section until the whole area is covered.

4. Always clean the stamp after use, with a wire brush.

According to the EST-Desmoldeante technical data sheet: waiting times vary with temperature and humidity; the release agent application temperature must be between 5 and 35 ºC; do not use if the mortar has excess water, do not add water once it has been sprayed and do not apply if there is a risk of frost, rain, strong winds or direct sun; wear gloves.

Compatibility

•  Moldable ESTonetex mortars: ESTonetex TXT (compatible with stamps according to the catalog), ESTonetex Park (compatible with molds), ESTonetex Sulfo and ESTonetex Extreme (carving and stamping) and ESTonetex Pavimento (anti-slip finish through texture or stamping). All of them in ESTonetex mortars

•  Other mortars and substrates: also suitable for cementitious mortars and concrete while they are still soft

•  Release agent: EST-Desmoldeante is the system release agent for molds and rollers; it prevents the mortar from sticking

Frequently asked questions

What texture does MP1 reproduce?
According to the catalog, it is a limestone and rock texture stamp. It measures 54 × 37 cm and its reference is 2128.

Is it rigid, semi-flexible or flexible?
MP1 is semi-flexible. According to the catalog: L1 to L14 are rigid with a plastic handle (28 × 15 to 38 × 26 cm); MR1 to MR8 are semi-flexible with a plastic handle (24 × 20 to 29 × 26 cm); MP1 to MP5 are semi-flexible with a fabric handle, MP6 is flexible and MP7 is rigid, all with a fabric handle (28 × 22 to 52 × 47 cm); and MF1 to MF5 are flexible with a silicone handle (73 × 32 to 76 × 43 cm).

Does it have a handle?
It has a fabric handle. In the catalog, the MP stamps have a fabric handle; the L and MR ones, a plastic handle; and the MF ones, a silicone handle.

Which release agent should be used and when is it applied?
EST-Desmoldeante is recommended, sprayed onto the mortar and onto the stamp, while the mortar is still soft.

Which mortars can it be used with?
With moldable ESTonetex mortars such as ESTonetex TXT, ESTonetex Park, ESTonetex Sulfo, ESTonetex Extreme or ESTonetex Pavimento, and with cementitious mortars and concrete while they are still soft.

How does MP1 differ from the other MP stamps with the same texture?
The texture is of the same type (limestone and rock); size and, where applicable, flexibility change. MP1: 54 × 37 cm, semi-flexible. Others: MP3 (43 × 43 cm, semi-flexible) and MP4 (43 × 42 cm, semi-flexible).

What is the difference between a stamp, a roller and a kit?
The stamp is pressed onto the soft mortar section by section; the roller is rolled over the surface; the kit combines a roller and a stamp (with a fabric handle) to create stone and rock textures. Rollers: RP1 / RP2 / RT01 / RT02. Kits: KP1 / KP2 / KP3 / KP4.

How is it cleaned after use?
It is recommended to always clean it after use with a wire brush, so that mortar residue does not build up.
