Instructions – two-day system

Day 1. Prime the floor

Prime the floor with Temafloor 402M according to the instructions in the product data sheet.

Day 2. Apply a basecoat

Apply Temafloor 500M as a basecoat according to the instructions in the product data sheet. This will be the main colour of the floor.

Prepare the decorative mix

Prepare the decorative mix in the same way as the basecoat and apply immediately, not more than 20 minutes after applying the basecoat. Add aluminium paste (2,0-2,5% wt to clear base paint) if a metallic effect is desired.

Pour the decorative mix

Wear spiked shoes when walking on the fresh basecoat. Pour the decorative mix to match the chosen design, e.g. using a watering can equipped with a narrow spout (Ꝋ ~10 mm). A suitable tool, such as a spatula or small trowel can be used to fine-tune the pattern. It is easiest to decorate in sections, for example applying 20–30 m² of basecoat and decorating it before moving on to the next section.

Sustainable solution

The floor system is M1-classified. Maintaining low levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in building materials is key to ensuring good interior air quality and the well-being of users and the environment.
