It’s worth reminding, time and time again, that surface preparation is key when creating an attractive home. Beneath the colorful paint and gorgeous textures on one’s walls are treatments to ensure a consistent and long-lasting finish. Imperfections on concrete can be tough to work around, but you can rely on Konstrukt renders to get the job done.
What is a Render?
Construction chemicals are necessary solutions to prepare a surface for various finishes. The Konstrukt Permaplast line, in particular, is a set of products used for concrete walls and ceilings. These are what you need to correct different imperfections like cracks and unevenness. Issues up to 3 mm in size can be addressed using a Konstrukt skimcoat.
On the other hand, Konstrukt Permaplast renders are specialized solutions used for issues that a skimcoat cannot address. If you have imperfections with a size greater than 3 mm, go for renders that are formulated to provide greater leveling properties.
Quality Renders for Your Home
Konstrukt Permaplast High-Performance Acrylic Render
For imperfections up to 5 mm in size, you can choose to repair these issues using Konstrukt Permaplast High-Performance Acrylic Render (K-202). Mixed with cement in a 1:1 ratio, you can fix issues like bubbles and honeycomb, as well as concrete defects such as plumbness and waviness, with this solution.
K-202 is helpful in minimizing cracking and improves water resistance on the surface. You can use this high-performance render on both interior and exterior surfaces.
Konstrukt Permaplast High-Performance Acrylic Render is also the product needed for the Kavern, Kohl and Kanyon finishes.
Konstrukt Permaplast Interior Render
For concrete defects with a size up to 8 mm, you can repair these with Konstrukt Permaplast Interior Render (K-222).
K-222 is a powder-based render. You only need to mix it with clean water, 5.5 liters for every 25 kg (or one sack). It results in a mixture with a pot life of 1 hour.
Walls applied with K-222 do not need to be applied with skimcoat anymore. Though, doing so can give an even smoother finish. Check out this article on a comprehensive explainer on how to apply render and skimcoat.

Konstrukt Permaplast Deco Render
If you’re interested in the course and sandy texture of the Koastal finish, along with the High-Performance Acrylic Render, you would also need Konstrukt Permaplast Deco Render (K-231).
It is a slurry-type product designated for textured finishes. As much as possible, K-231 is use-as-supplied, but you can add a maximum of 5% of the volume of clean water to thin it for easier applicability.
