METHOD OF APPLICATION

Substrates:

  • Plasterboard.
  • All standard smooth and filled substrates, if necessary, with Alltek LF50 or Alltek LM 150.

Preparation of substrate:

  • The substrates, preparatory work and application conditions must be compliant with applicable building trade regulations (e.g. DTU) and standards.

Application tips:

  • After removing the product protection film, mix with an electric mixer.
  • First coat: irregularly apply a thin layer of Alltek Nuance Tuscany with a spatula or trowel (with rounded corners) to create a texture (hollows and projections) by tilting the spatula to the maximum (almost parallel to the application surface).
  • Second coat: After drying (after around 6 hours), apply a second coat. The spatula should be held as perpendicular as possible to the application surface, as the idea is to fill the hollows, with a strong pressure to achieve maximum brightness (shaping of coating).
  • After drying, coat Tuscan Nuance with Stucco Wax protective wax, which will give it a silky and very glossy surface after finishing.

Recommendations:

  • Ensure adequate ventilation to remove excess moisture and accelerate drying.
