Surface treatment
New unpainted surfaces: Clean the surface and remove all possible traces of dust or dirt. Treat the substrate
with a priming coat of ADIFIX thinned as specified and allow to dry. Proceed with the application of a basecoat
using FONDO UNIVERSALE thinned in the recommended doses.
Previously painted surfaces: Check that the state of the existing paintwork is in excellent condition, if so,
proceed directly with the application of the FONDO UNIVERSALE, as described in the previous paragraph.
If the surface shows signs of defects, such as peeling or chalking, remove any loose parts that would compromise
the correct adhesion of the product then proceed as indicated hereabove for New unpainted surfaces.
Preparing the required color
The chosen color is obtained by adding the specified quantity of Adicolor TINTER to the product base according to the formula indicated on the color chart. The product can also be colored with the Adicolor tinting system.
Application
At least 4 to 6 hours after the application of the basecoat, proceed with the application of VELÉ that can be
easily done with the special application glove.
Dip the widest part of the glove into the VELÉ finish without excessively loading it with product.
Rest the glove on the wall and start to apply the product using circular and uneven movements.
When the glove begins to miss product, dip it again making sure to resume the application at about 30-40 cm
away from where you left off and lightly work back, blending in softly to avoid excessive overlapping marks.
VELÉ can be applied to one or two coats. The second coat will improve the uniformity of the effect and give a
more intense color.
The application of the second coat, that can also be given in a different color, must be applied when the first
coat is perfectly dry.
VELÉ can also be applied by brush, sponge or other tool even onto materic, non-smooth surfaces to enhance the
appearance and give more depth to the effect.
