APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
After the CSH has been applied to the concrete, floated, trowelled and
tested for firmness, RA should be applied after being thoroughly hand
mixed in its container. RA should be gently cast onto the concrete surface,
do not cast over long distances as it will become airborne. Do not over
apply - only a very thin layer is needed, sufficient has been applied
when the CSH colour is masked by the colour of the RA. When the area to
be printed has been covered with RA, the first imprinting mat can be placed.
