Pre-Application Preparation
The application surface should be free of substances that prevent adhesion such as dust, oil, paint.
Sub-surfaces such as cracked plasters and weak surfaces that are not strong enough to carry the application should be cleaned from the application surface.

The ridge sides are filled with adhesive without leaving any gaps.
After 1 hour of this application, the adhesive is given its final shape with a damp sponge.
Since the adhesion and freezing takes place approximately 48 hours after the application, the ridge tiles and applied surfaces should not be pressed within this period.

Warnings
Avoid application at temperatures below + 5ºC and above + 35ºC.
Newly completed applications should be protected against adverse weather effects such as direct sunlight, excessive air flow, high air temperature (above + 35ºC), rain and frost in the first days.
Never add powder and water to the expired or crusted mortar in the container, discard the mortar.
Wash all tools and application equipment with clean water immediately after use.
