mixture

After we had a training walls under plaster, it's time to move on to the preparation of the mixture.

Instructions for preparing their own hands:

• In a clean container, following the manufacturer's recommendations, instructions in said pour volume water temperature of 15-20 0C.
• The water gradually introduce dry component mixture, stirring continuously to avoid clumping.
• The resulting composition of continuing stirring until homogeneous, subject for 10-15 minutes in a closed container. After this time the mixture was again kneaded.

Note! In the process, the mixture must be mixed so that it does not freeze. It is strictly forbidden to add water into finished weight, it causes bundle plaster and drastic deterioration of its characteristics.

infliction

The technology application "bark" was not extremely difficult.

To master it, you can pretty quickly if you follow the recommendations:

• "Bark" is applied to the surface using a float or a stainless steel spatula.
• When applying tool keep an angle of 60 ° to the surface, forming a layer of thickness equal to the size of the largest grains.
  

  plastering

• If in the course of work on plastering the walls with his own hands to take a break, place the end of the work is sealed with masking tape, tape is applied over the plaster. When resuming the work layer is cut and the masking tape is removed.
• Before applying the "bark beetle" strokes, putting his hand to the surface, if it does not stick, it's time to move on to the next stage!
• Strokes applied with a plastic float which keeps flat vnakladku to the surface. By means of varying intensity and direction of float movement available strokes of different configuration and size.
  

  Application of decorative touches

The optimum temperature for drying "Bark" - from 5 to 30 0 C at a humidity of not more than 80%. If the finish is applied to the façade, within 48 hours after completion of the work it needs to be protected from rain and direct sunlight.
