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 ADIDROL B thinned in the recommended doses and tinted in a tone similar to that of the final product.
Previously painted surfaces: Check that the state of the existing paintwork is in excellent condition, if so,
proceed directly with the application of the ADIDROL B, 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
When the colored basecoat Is totally dry, proceed with the application of VELI&VELLUTI according to the desired
method.
- TROWELED effect
Apply a first level coat of VELI&VELLUTI using the appropriate plastic trowel. The surface of this layer should
result to be totally smooth and uniform, without edge marks or other surface defects.
When the first coat is completely dry, apply the second, thin coat with the same trowel, spreading the product
with crossed and non-uniform movements, creating a pattern that looks like the effect of velvet,
It is advisable to maintain the trowel constantly clean. - BRUSHED Effect
Using a short-pile roller, apply a first level coat of VELI&VELLUTI for this use, thinned with 15% water.
When this first coat is completely dry, apply a second coat of undiluted product with the Desiré Brush using
random crossed and non-uniform movements.
Apply in this way for about 10 minutes then lightly pass the Desiré Distender over the applied product to create
a more uniform effect. Continue in this way till the work is finished. - SPONGED Damask effect
Apply a first level coat of VELI&VELLUTI using the appropriate plastic trowel.
When this first coat is completely dry, create the damask pattern by dabbing on more product to the surface
with a sea sponge (previously wet and then well squeezed).
This dabbing operation should leave a discontinuous sponged pattern without overlaps, creating visible and
defined reliefs on the surface.
After about 15/20 minutes from the application, lightly smooth down the higher parts of the reliefs with the
Desiré Distender or with a trowel, using crossed movements, to reach the desired effect. Continue dabbing
and smoothing in this way till the work is finished.
