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.
Previously painted surfaces: Check that the state of the existing paintwork is in excellent condition, if so,
proceed directly with the application of the basecoat 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
Apply a first level coat of VENEXIAN FAUX onto the prepared surface using a stainless-steel rounded trowel.
The surface of this layer should result to be totally smooth and uniform, without edge marks or roughness.
When the first coat is completely dry, apply the second coat, spreading the product with crossed and nonuniform movements, creating a very smooth and compact surface, free from any defects or edge marks.
Spread a thin and final layer of product using thorough and consistent movements and strong pressure on the
trowel. This will be important to get the typical Venetian plaster effect and a greater sheen. Continue troweling
and burnishing until the desired finish is achieved.
Conclude by wiping a soft cloth vigorously over the surface to accent the high polish of the finish.
For those who want an even greater sheen, it is possible to use an orbital or rotary polishing/sanding machine
with buffer pads.
VENEXIAN FAUX does not require waxing, however, an application of EASYWAX will provide better
protection were needed. In this case, spread the wax with a synthetic sponge then wipe down with a soft cloth
to polish before the wax is completely dry.
