| Surface Preparation |
Dust, residues, weak surfaces and substances with splitting property should be removed from the application surface. Dry and absorptive surfaces should be slightly dampened beforehand. Highly absorptive surfaces such as aerated concrete and pumice brick should be primed with LRC primer.
In to 11-12 kg clean and cool water 35 kg of LRC RP is mixed with an electricity hand mixer it is mixed for 3-4 minutes until a homogenous mix is obtained and is left to rest for 5 minutes. Matured substrate is mixed one more time and it is ready to use. Never add water into the powder. Application is recommended to carry out at +5 to +35°C.

| Application |
LRC RP should be applied in 10-15 mm thickness and in one layer with a steel trowel, piston engine or helical plastering machine. In the surfaces that need 15 mm or thicker plaster, LRC RP should be applied in two layers. In surfaces that require an application thicker than 15 mm, wait for the first layer of LRC RP to dry completely for about 4-5 days before starting the second layer application. After this resting period, the second layer in 10-15 mm thickness is applied by using plaster mesh when needed. When the last layer plaster settles enough and becomes plastic consistency (60-70 mins. later), it is checked with a face mould again. When the surface becomes too hard to float, it is smoothened with a spatula or steel trowel. The triphylined surface is smoothened by pressing with a steel trowel again within 10-15 minutes until it becomes as smooth and shiny as glass. In the meantime, trphylining the surface more than needed or pressing the trowel too hard in order to polish the surface may cause rough grain sand in the plaster to spurt out and accordingly roughness on the surface.
For a smoother and glass like surface we recommend for you to use LRC Satin Plaster. After the surface is cured you may apply any color or facade coating.
The surface becomes ready for the paint 7 days after the plaster application.

| Things to pay attention |
• The prepared substrate must be used within 2 hours.
• During application the environment must be wind and direct sunlight free.
• It is imperative that the surface is saturated with water.
