Instructions

Mixing

  1. Prepare each bag in a 5 gallon(19 liter) container, which is clean and free of foreign substances. Do not use a container which has contained or been cleaned with any petroleum- based product.
  2. Begin with 1.5 gallons (5.6 liters) of clean potable water Prepare each bag in a 5- gallon (19 liter) container,.
  3. Slowly add the product in small increments to the water while mixing well with a jiffy-type mixer to a homogenous consistency.
  4. Mix for a minimum of 3 to 5 minutes. Additional water or material may be added to adjust workability and desired consistency.
  5. Let mixed material stand to allow it to take it’s initial set for 5 – 10 minutes.
  6. Re-mix the material adding enough water to reach the desired consistency. Do not over mix.
Application
  1. For use as a base coat BA-75 white shall be applied so as to achieve reinforcing fabric embedment sufficient enough so that no fabric color is visible, then trowel smooth. Allow the BA-75 white to completely cure (24 hours is recommended) before finish is applied.
  2. For use as an adhesive we recommend the notched trowel method. Apply to the back of EPS board with a stainless steel notched trowel with ½” notches spaced 2” apart. The notches are to run vertical on the wall creating a vertical drainage plane.
  3. For use as a leveling coat, apply the material to the approved substrate needing leveling. Application method may vary with substrate and project conditions. Do not exceed 3/16” thickness per application.
