(1-1 1/2 minutes minimum after all dry material added)

B. Adjust to desired consistency by addition of small amount of water, if needed.

C. Apply with roller covering entire substrate.

D. Embed and trowel Fiberglass Mesh in KRETE KOTE 2000. Cure minimum of 12 hours before proceeding, longer in cool weather.


V Warning

Do not apply if wall board surface temperature is below 500F, or over 1000F., if ambient temperature is less than 500F and falling, over 1000F and rising, or if precipitation or extreme high humidity is expected within a 24-hour period.
