Installation Guide
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, spread a thin, even layer of 2 mm across the entire floor. Maintain the trowel at a shallow angle (15-30 degrees) to ensure even coverage.
- Drying: Let the first coat dry overnight, ensuring the area is free from foot traffic during this time.
4. Application of the Second Coat
- Dampen the Surface: Lightly mist the floor with water to extend the plaster's working time.
- Apply Second Coat: Apply the second layer similarly to the first, using overlapping strokes to achieve a smooth, even finish. For a textured effect, vary your trowel strokes slightly.
- Burnishing: Once the second coat is partially dry but still workable, use a clean steel trowel to compress and smooth the surface, creating a polished, seamless finish.
5. Finishing Touches
- Sanding: After the plaster has fully dried, sand the floor with 200-400 grit sandpaper to achieve the desired smoothness.
- Cleaning: Thoroughly clean the floor to remove any dust or debris from sanding.
6. Sealing the Surface
- Apply Presealer: To protect the plaster and ensure durability, apply two coats of Topciment Presealer. Allow each coat to dry for 4 hours before applying the next.
- Apply TopSealer Onecoat: Once the Presealer has dried (wait at least 12 hours), apply two coats of TopSealer Onecoat. Allow 8-24 hours of drying time between coats. For high-traffic areas, apply an additional coat of TopSealer 100 after the Onecoat for maximum durability.
