Mixing Ratio
1 part water: 3 parts concrete
Base Preparation
Start by priming the surface with a water-based primer.
Ensure to apply the primer evenly onto the surface using a roller, brush or spray gun and dry it properly before moving on to applying the liquid metal material.
Application Procedure for Concrete Material
Step 1: Mixing
Combine concrete powder and water in a 3:1 ratio in a clean container.
Mix thoroughly using a spatula or electric mixer until a smooth, lump-free consistency is obtained.
Optional: For a colored finish, add the stainer to the water first and blend evenly before introducing the concrete premix.
Step 2: Application Process
1. Apply a base layer of concrete approximately 1 mm thick using a trowel.
2. Allow it to dry for 4 hours.
3. Optional (Faster Drying Method): After applying the base coat, use a heat gun to speed up
drying. Hold it at a safe distance and move it evenly across the surface. Avoid concentrating
heat in one spot.
4. Once fully dried, lightly spray the surface with water using a spray bottle and apply a second
layer, 1.5–2 mm thick.
5. Leave this layer to set for 5–10 minutes.
6. Optional (Faster Setting): Gently pass the heat gun over the surface to accelerate the setting
process before final troweling.
7. As the surface begins to dry, lightly spray water again and smoothen it with a trowel.
8. Move the trowel in a single, consistent direction to avoid unwanted lines.
9. Allow the surface to cure completely before handling or applying further finishes.
10. Optional: Apply a protective coat to seal the finish and enhance durability, especially for exterior
or high-contact surfaces.
Note:
The heat gun is used solely to reduce drying and setting time. It does not increase shine, alter texture, or improve structural strength. Always use controlled, even motion when applying heat to prevent surface damage
