Product Information
Full details
Gyproc ProMix Lite is a professional-grade ready-mixed jointing compound designed for plasterers and DIY enthusiasts who need a reliable, high-quality finish for drywall joints. Its primary advantage is its ready-to-use convenience, which eliminates the need for water mixing and speeds up site preparation, though users should note it is sold in a 20kg pail that requires dedicated storage space.

FAQs
Can I use ProMix Lite on new plasterboard?

Do I need to add water to this product?

Troubleshooting
Compound feels too thick during application
Add a very small amount of clean water and stir thoroughly until the desired consistency is achieved.

Ensure the room temperature is moderate and avoid applying in direct sunlight or drafty areas.
Hardened chunks in the pail

- Consistent texture straight from the pail

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting, ensure the substrate is dry, clean, and free of dust. ProMix Lite is compatible with standard plasterboard surfaces and functions best when used in conjunction with other Gyproc jointing products. To maintain product integrity, always reseal the lid tightly after every use to prevent the compound from drying out. If you notice a thin layer of liquid on the surface after opening, simply stir the contents gently to restore the original consistency. Store the pail in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and avoid freezing temperatures, which can compromise the chemical structure of the compound.
