A multipurpose finishing plaster applied with a one-coat application method using a steel trowel and a rubber float. RhinoLite is a lightweight retarded hemihydrate gypsum plaster, specially manufactured as a combined basecoat, finishing and multi-purpose plaster for internal application onto brickwork, concrete block, concrete and Gyproc RhinoBoard, and as a finishing plaster onto sand cement basecoats. RhinoLite provides a highly polished smooth surface, or alternatively a brush or textured finish.

RhinoLite can be applied onto uneven surfaces to ensure a smooth surface finish. However, such application calls for a thicker plaster layer (10mm+). If you need to cover up stipple paint or textured plaster, RhinoLite can be applied after surface preparation with grippon is done.

RhinoLite is not recommended for use in areas of high moisture, such as wet rooms, showers or exterior surfaces.
As in good building practice, roof, windows and doors should be installed before plastering with RhinoLite, to help prevent dry-outs and ensure consistent setting.
Before painting the plaster must be hard set, dry and free from dust or powder. Under no circumstances should RhinoLite be sanded.

All RhinoLite surfaces must be sealed with an oil-based paint bonding liquid or a pigmented plaster primer, suitably thinned down with mineral turpentine. Allow to dry for 24 hours before applying two coats of acrylic paint.
