PREPARING THE SURFACE
Plaster, gypsum and gypsum board surfaces:
- Make sure that the surface is thoroughly dried and aged. Resurface or consolidate using specific products if
necessary.
- If mold is present, treat the surface with COMBAT 222 cleanser code 4810222, and with COMBAT 333
reconstruction code 4810333. To protect the wall from mold formation add COMBAT 444 code 4810444 sanitizer to the product.
- Brush or wash to remove any efflorescence and any old peeling paint. Completely eliminate any raised layers of lime-based or tempera paints.
- Remove any dust, smog or other deposits by brushing.
- Level any irregularities in the surface and treat holes, cracks, crevices and gaps with TAMSTUCCO
9400006/9410110; sand putty and touch-ups with sandpaper.
- Use adequate sealants to seal any cracks.
- Smooth if necessary with RASAMIX 9440160 or with BETOMARC 9450150 or RASOMARC 9500150 according
to the type of support.
- On a clean, dry surface apply one coat of IDROFIS 4700006 acrylic water-based wall fixative or ATOMO
8840001 micronized solvent-free fixative. On gypsumboard, apply the specific fixative PREPARA 4710019 pigmented fixative
- Apply the primer chosen for the realization of the effect desired.
- Apply MY_ART as described in the application instructions.\
