Application
- Suitable substrates
The product is suitable for application on interior surfaces:
New and old water-based plaster. Concrete surfaces. Gypsum and plasterboard surfaces. Surfaces with old paint of mineral or organic origin, provided they are dry, sound, firm, absorbent and properly prepared. Various mineral building compounds, provided they are absorbent. Surfaces must be properly prepared in accordance with the procedure described in the section “SURFACE PREPARATION.”
Do not apply to damp or insufficiently dried surfaces.
- Tools
Brush and sponge.
- Dilution
Ready to use or dilute with water by up to 5%.
- Number of coats
1-2.
- Method
Apply MARCOPOLO to the dry substrate using a brush, either in a defined vertical or horizontal direction, or randomly with semicircular strokes. Before MARCOPOLO dries on the surface, work the product using either:
a brush, maintaining the selected vertical (horizontal) direction or using crosswise movements to create a “fabric-like” texture; a soft, damp sponge to create areas of product accumulation from the semicircular, random strokes, ensuring that these areas are distributed evenly across the entire wall surface. The characteristic decorative effect becomes visible once the material has dried completely.
