Mas Maya Coating is ideal for bathrooms, offering a water-resistant, durable finish that withstands humidity. Free from VOCs, it ensures a safe environment. The coating bonds well to tiles and wood, providing lasting protection, while preventing mold and mildew, and enhancing the bathroom's aesthetic with a smooth finish.

• Mas Maya Coating
• Mas Maya Primer
• Mas Maya Base (if your surface isn't yet flat and smooth)
• Topciment Presealer
• TopSealer OneCoat
• TopSealer 100
• Steel trowels (various sizes)
• Sandpaper (200-400 grit)
• Clean buckets and sponges
• Painter's tape
• Spray bottle with water

1. Surface Preparation

• Clean the Surface: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, dirt, and any loose materials.
• Repair Imperfections: Fill in any cracks or holes with Mas Maya Base.
• Apply Primer: Use Mas Maya Primer to improve adhesion. Apply evenly with a brush or roller and let it dry according to the manufacturer's instructions.

2. Mixing the Plaster

• Mixing Ratio: Combine Mas Maya Coating powder with clean water at a ratio of ⅓ liter of water per kilogram of powder.
• Mixing Process: Mix thoroughly using a mechanical drill with a mixing paddle. Let it rest for 5 minutes, then stir again until the consistency is similar to yogurt.

3. Application of the First Coat

• Apply First Coat: Using a steel trowel, apply a thin, even layer of 2 mm across the bathroom walls, floor, or other surfaces. Hold the trowel at a shallow angle (15-30 degrees) to ensure even coverage.
• Drying: Allow the first coat to dry overnight, ensuring the area is protected from moisture during this time.

4. Application of the Second Coat

• Dampen the Surface: Lightly mist the surface with water to extend the plaster's working time.
• Apply Second Coat: Apply the second layer similarly to the first, using overlapping strokes to create a smooth, even finish. Vary the trowel strokes slightly for a textured or organic look if desired.
• Burnishing: Once the second coat is partially dry but still pliable, use a clean steel trowel to compress and smooth the surface, achieving the desired polished finish.

5. Finishing Touches

• Sanding: After the plaster has fully dried, lightly sand the surface with 200-400 grit sandpaper to achieve a smooth, polished finish.
• Cleaning: Thoroughly clean the surface to remove any dust or debris from sanding.

6. Sealing the Surface

• Apply Presealer: To protect the plaster from water and humidity, apply two coats of Topciment Presealer. Allow each coat to dry for at least 4 hours before applying the next.
• Apply TopSealer Onecoat: After the Presealer has dried (wait at least 12 hours), apply two coats of TopSealer Onecoat. This sealer provides additional water resistance and durability, essential for bathrooms. For high-humidity areas, such as showers, apply an extra coat of TopSealer 100 for maximum protection.

Tips for Success:

• Work in Sections: Apply the plaster in smaller sections to avoid it drying too quickly, which can lead to visible seams.
• Practice: If you’re new to applying plaster, practice on a spare board or a small section first to perfect your technique.
• Environmental Conditions: Avoid applying the coating in extreme temperatures or high humidity. Moderate temperature and low humidity are ideal for application.
