Method of application
Base Coat after wall preparation, apply a priming undercoat of Quartz Primer, thinned 1:1 in water in the same colour of STONE. The use of Quartz Primer as a base coat gives an initial coloured covering and protection and facilitates the application of the coating.
Steel trowel + foam roller + steel spatula
When Quartz Primer is completely dry, apply a uniform layer of STONE with a small stainless steel trowel all over the surface as a base coat. Once the first coat is dry, apply with the same tool a consistent layer about 3mm thick of STONE to the wall.
While the material is still wet, roll over the surface vertically and horizontally with a foam roller. Stipple the product inside the corners and along the edges to achieve an even and consistent coat thickness. Apply the last roll vertically and in the same direction to achieve a regular stipple.
As soon as the plaster is no longer tacky to the touch work across vertically the surface with a blade of stainless steel trowel in a quick sweeping action to smooth the surface.
Wax application:
STONE can be finished with the application of NATURWAX. The wax penetrates into the plasters pores and seals protect them from unwanted moisture adding protection and enhancing colour and shine.
Apply wax using a clean blade or a dry, clean white cotton cloth, wiping away excess of wax. If the wax is left unworked on the surface, or is squeezed into the surface with a trowel, the deep penetration can cause dark stains, which cannot be removed.
Wait for the first coat of wax to dry, then buff it with a dry, clean cotton cloth.
For best result a 2 coats application is necessary.
Application Tips:
For application of STONE we advise a minimum of two people. One person should apply the product on the wall in areas from top to bottom spreading the product on the wall without interruptions to keep the edges of the areas of product applied always wet. Applying wet material to wet material will result in a beautiful even texture. A second person should roll the product on the wall following the applicator and smooth the surface when no longer tacky.

Venetian Plaster
Polished Plaster, or Stucco Veneziano, is a Traditional wall treatment that provides a glossy, visually textured wall finish. Venetian Plaster is a natural formula composed of organic ingredients, calcium, and acrylic binders creating a decorative paste plaster for interior applications. Polishing the surface compresses the calcium within the compound, creating a narble-like finish, cool and hard to the touch.
This treatment is quite versitile, ranging from a rustic backdrop to a refined and elegant finish.
