1. The substrate surface must be clean, dust-free and oil-free.
2. Mix approximately 1.5 kg FOXSKIM into 1 liter of clean water. Add to it the required amount of water and powder in the same ratio. Slowly and gradually, either by hand or with mixer till the mixture is lump- free. After the stirring process do not add further material. Let the material settle for 3-5 minutes.
3. A layer with a thickness of 1 to 3 mm must be laid. Movement of the plastering trowel must be from the bottom upwards, with an inclination of around 30% in relation to the base. Start leveling the wall by circular movements only in one direction (or only to the left or to the right, in no case in a full circle). Wait until the skim coat is half hardened and then process it with a clean mortar board until the surface becomes perfectly smooth. Apply a second coat of mixture after the first coat has dried completely.
4. To reach a smooth, mirror-like surface, lay a third layer with thin consistence and skim the whole surface.
5. If necessary, polish the layer with a fine sandpaper after hardening.
