Surface preparation:

The surface must be solid, dry, and free from efflorescence, dust, dirt, oil and grease. Previously painted surfaces should be cleaned of old flaking material and should be cleaned by sandpaper.
Places affected by mold or moss must be thoroughly cleaned mechanically and treated with primer BIOZIDGRUND (TM "ELF") or other special means.

Execution of works:

Apply QUARTZ PRIMER or QUARZGRUND ELF™ primer to the prepared surface (fig. 1). Wait until it dries completely. Apply the first layer of TRAVERTINO STYLE with a stainless steel trowel to the grain size, spreading the product evenly over the entire surface. (fig. 2). After the first layer has completely dried (8-12 hours), apply the second layer of the material in the same way.

When the second layer dries a little (15-20 minutes), scratch it with a narrow metal trowel, preferably in a horizontal direction, in order to imitate the veins of travertine (fig. 3). Gloss the surface with a stainless steel trowel before completely drying. Before applying the decorative layer, it is recommended to prime the surface with primer VINYLGRUND D14 (TM "ELF").

It is recommended to use a variety of finishing materials as a decorative and protective layer inside the premises: DECOR WAX, DECOR WAX TOSCANA or VINTAGE (fig. 5, 6).
