CHARACTERISTICS AND UTILIZATIONS
The Marmorino Roma is a mixture of particular and selectioned dusts and marble grits with other mineral ingredients with prevalence lime and other different additives which facilitate and garantee an excellent anchorage to the support.
It is the caracteristic "Marmorino" already used some centuries ago in the villas and in the most important palaces, today proposed again by the IMPEX COLOR in the present version in past forme.
The Marmorino Roma can be used both inside and outside: for its particular mineral composition, the Marmorino Roma has a good resistance both to the humidity and to the moulds. It has an excellent perspiration, even if it has a sufficient waterproofness.
APPLICATION
• Polished Finish
After treating carefully the bottoms, apply a first coat of material with a inox trowel, leaving a thickness of 1 mm about, and paying attention to spread uniformly and plane the product, without blurs, lines, surmounts etc.
After about 12 hours (according to the absorption and the environmental temperature), apply a second coat of Marmorino Roma with the same previous proceeding. When the second coat starts to be dry, apply a third coat of Marmorino Roma and when this coat starts to be little dry pass the surface with the inox trowel pressing the product gently. As the third coat dries, polish the surface pressing the product, until to obtaining the wished effect.
• Travertino Classico Finish
After approx. 12 hours apply a second coat, leaving a slightly higher thickness compared to the first coat. When the product begins to dry, and no water can be seen on the surface, proceed with the scratching of Marmorino Roma using the specific spatula for Travertino in the direction desired. Carry out the scratching of the surface for about 1-2 m2 and then proceed with flattening the scratched surface with a inox trowel . Before the product dries completely, proceed with polishing the surface with a inox trowel in the direction of the scratching done beforehand.
Repeat the operation for the surface area remaining.
• Travertino Romano Finish
After having treated the surfaces appropriately, apply the first coat of Marmorino Roma with a stainless steel plastering trowel, making sure you spread the product evenly and uniformly and you do not leave flashes, lines or any overlapping etc.
After approx. 12 hours, depending on absorption and ambient temperature) apply a second coat of Marmorino Roma with the same procedure as before, leaving a slightly higher thickness compared with the first coat.
Go over the surface when it is still wet with the appropriate utensil to create the effect desired.
When the product begins to dry and there is no longer any water on the surface, pass over with the inox trowel applying a slight pressure.
Before the product dries completely, proceed with polishing the surface with the inox trowel in the direction of the scratching carried out beforehand.
Repeat the operation for the rest of the surface area remaining.
FURTHER TIPS
If the surface area being treated is rather large or if the climate is particularly hot, spray water onto the marmorino keeping it damp.
In the event of doing jobs outside, protect the wall for at least 3 days (especially when it is particularly humid). In the periods of intense heat, always protect exterior walls from the direct rays of the sun.
Marmorino Roma can be coloured with iron oxide in the event of application on surfaces outside.
For interiors, Marmorino Roma can also be treated with transparent waxes in order to obtain a greater shininess and higher protection.
For exteriors, in order to increase water-proofing you can apply our water-based water-repellent SILATOP COAT HYDRO after at least 24-36 hours.
