materials or paints. It is recommended, on old subtrates, to wash surfaces with pressurized water or brushing with a wire brush.Preparing the mortar
The NHL Finishing Mortar must be mixed with the appopriate amount of water, in small quantities and using an electrical drill, in order to obtain a uniform paste without lumps.
Application
After mixing the NHL Finishing Mortar, a smooth layer must be applied over the substrate. One or two layers of this mortar are enough to give the surface a smooth texture with a natural colour.
In the application process, the necessary cautions must be ensured, using the adequate techniques, in order to guarantee a continuous and uniform appearance, eliminating creases or other imperfections.
The total tickness of the coating should not be above 4 mm.
