Rustic Finish
Natural Calk Rustic Finish is perfect for creating a rustic look on façades, making it suitable for both restoration works and modern construction. To ensure optimal adhesion to the substrate, it is necessary to apply Natural Calk Primer beforehand.
Scope and Product Application
The Natural Calk Rustic Finish is applied using a steel trowel or spatula. Once the plaster begins to set, it is recommended to finish the surface with a sponge float. For alternative finishes, a steel trowel may be used to complete the application. It is recommended to protect the applied surface from rain for at least 48 hours.
Do not apply the product at temperatures below 5°C or above 25°C, and avoid applying on walls overheated by the sun. During hot and windy periods, it is advisable to moisten the walls before application. Before use, mechanically mix until a uniform consistency is obtained.
