Refer to the Dulux Acratex Application Manual for detailed application instructions.
Dulux Acratex FastCoat is applied to the substrate via trowel at the minimum rate of 1.0 square metres per litre depending on the substrate condition and porosity. Once applied by stainless steel trowel the product is processed with a plastic finishing float to a uniform fine trowel finish.
Single areas are completed in one application so as to avoid join marks. Large areas will need to be articulated into workable sections especially during periods of high temperatures.
