Tata Black Floor Iron Oxide 1 kg

Procedure of Application

• Mix Tata Black and the standard (ISI mark) quality cement (white mixture of the two) in the ratio of 1:4 or 1:5 depending upon the depth of the colour.
• Tata Black and quality cement have to be mixed properly in a dry state by rubbing the mixture with both hands.
• Add water slowly while mixing
• The addition of water must be monitored so that there is sufficient consistency in the mass required for trevoling.
• A day of curing is required after the final finishing.
• On the second day, clean water needs to be poured on the floor, so that a column of 2 mm of water can stand for 3 days.

Precaution

• For better results, it is necessary to prepare a homogenous mixture of Tata Black and Cement in a dry state before adding water.
• The chore of mixing and application must be done by an experienced mason.
• The dry mixture should be prepared just before applying it.
• The wet floor surface must be protected from dust, direct sun light and damage of any other nature.
• Use of chalk powder with the dry mixture of colours and cement must be avoided as it dilutes the intensity of the colour
• Any contact between Tata Black and acids or acidic materials must be prevented.
• Tata Black may be used for interior as well as exterior applications.

Polishing

Buffing and polishing should be undertaken after the floor has been allowed to dry for a week. More time will ensure a better setting.
