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: With a steel trowel, spread a thin, even layer of 2 mm across the entire pool surface. Hold the trowel at a shallow angle (15-30 degrees) for even application.
  • Drying: Allow the first coat to dry overnight. Ensure the pool is protected from direct sunlight and is free from any water or moisture during the drying process.

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 trowel strokes for a consistent finish. For a more textured or marbled effect, vary the stroke angles slightly.
  • Burnishing: Once the second coat is partially dry but still pliable, use a clean steel trowel to compress and smooth the surface, creating 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 and ensure it remains waterproof, apply two coats of Topciment Presealer. Allow each coat to dry for at least 4 hours before applying the next.
  • Apply TopSealer Pool: Once the Presealer has dried (wait at least 12 hours), apply two coats of TopSealer Pool, which is specially formulated for underwater environments. Allow each coat to dry for 8-24 hours, ensuring the surface is fully cured before filling the pool with water.

Tips for Success:

  • Work in Sections: Apply the plaster in manageable sections to prevent it from drying too quickly.
  • Practice: If you're new to applying plaster, consider practicing on a spare board or a small section of the pool.
  • Environmental Conditions: Avoid applying the coating in direct sunlight or during high humidity. Ideal conditions are moderate temperature and low humidity.
