• 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 Blue and Cement in a dry state before adding water.
