Instruction
NOTE
Always test the product before use on the main surface. The effect obtained depends on many factors, such as substrate preparation, tools used, application technique. The manufacturer is not responsible for improper use of the product.
The product should be applied to completely smooth surfaces. Otherwise, scratches may occur.
It is recommended to use tools with perfectly even and sharp edges.
If necessary, the edge of the trowel can be sharpened with sandpaper 2000. Tools should be washed frequently during work to avoid scratches on the decorated surface caused by the residue of the dried product.
The product should be stored in a tightly closed original container at 5 – 25°C and out of the reach of children. Do not expose it to sunlight. Protect from freezing.
SUBSTRATE PREPARATION
The substrate should be clean, degreased, even, stable and uncracked. Fresh cement and lime-cement plasters should be seasoned for at least 4 weeks.
Paint the surface with Decobase paint. It will create a base coat similar to the effect’s colour, reduce the consumption of Metaliq and ensure the best possible final result. When dry, sand the wall gently with fine sandpaper and dust it off.
Highly absorbent or not equally absorbent surfaces should be primed with a suitable primer before applying Decobase. We recommend our PRIMACOL® DECORATIVE primer.
APPLICATION
Open the bucket with Metaliq Paste and mix the contents thoroughly, preferably with a mechanical agitator at slow speed or alternatively, by hand.
Apply the paste with a Venetian trowel in horizontal and vertical movements to create a pattern. Work in stages on an area of max 0.5m² at a time.
Repeat this process until the entire surface is covered and leave the wall to dry for about 12h.
After this time, carefully sand the surface with fine sandpaper (180-200 grit), dust off and polish with a clean spatula guiding the tool vertically and horizontally.
- For Metaliq Patine effect, after the Metaliq Paste has dried, additionally apply a small amount of Metaliq Patine in places with a venetian trowel. Then, as with other colours, after about 12 hours, sand the surface with fine sandpaper, dust off and polish the wall with a clean spatula.
The final step to create the Metaliq effect is to apply Metaliq Top.
Open Metaliq Top and mix the contents thoroughly. Apply the product in a thin layer with a spatula, spreading it vertically and horizontally.
After covering the entire surface, let the wall dry completely, at least for 12 hours.
