Recommended Surface Preparation for Intocalce
| SURFACE TYPE | PREPARATION METHOD |
|---|---|
| Cement or Lime Plaster | 1 coat of Decora Fondo or DOC PRIMER, followed by 1–2 coats of Intocalce Medium |
| Painted or Non-Breathable Surfaces | Remove coating where possible, apply ONE PRIMER, then use Intocalce as corrective base |
| Cracked or Irregular Walls | Use fiber mesh embedded between Intocalce Medium coats for reinforcement |
| Lime Masonry or Heritage Substrates | Consult Decora technical support for custom mortar layering based on age and porosity |
A classic steel plastering trowel is ideal for even spreading and smooth compression. For finer adjustments, especially when blending with decorative finishes, a flexible spatoline ensures seamless transitions between coats.
When used as a finish coat, Intocalce develops a soft, breathable surface with gentle mineral depth. For enhanced resistance and subtle sheen, a light application of Decora Natural Wax may be used. If applied as a base layer, no maintenance is required once a topcoat is in place.
