Finishing for both hand and spray applications should
be done to the required surface texture as soon as the
mortar has started to stiffen.
CURING TREATMENT
To achieve the full potential of any cement based
products, curing is essential. This can be carried out
with the application of a curing compound such as An-
tisol® E or with other curing practices such as covering
with polythene sheets or damp hessian for 3 days.
CLEANING OF TOOLS
Clean all tools and application equipment with water
immediately after use. Hardened and/or cured materi-
al can only be mechanically removed.
