General Rules for Correct Color Mixing
To obtain a finish corresponding exactly to the color system in the color catalogue, put the indicated quantity of pigments with that system number into the bucket of stucco.
For a good result of the colored final product, the mixing is an essential part of the color additives. Consequently it’s necessary to observe the following steps: The basic white stucco marmorino product is very dense, so before adding color, it’s necessary to mix it with a rotor drill or mixing machine, to reduce its viscosity. Pour gradually all the color additive in the bucket and continue to mix until a homogeneous blend is achieved.
If a mixing machine is used, it’s necessary to create a hole inside the paste and pour in the color, then cover the hole with the paste and proceed to mix.
- Put the mixer in the tub and mix for about 1 minute.
- Add the color dye.
- Mix again for 2–3 minutes. Cover the bucket and let it rest for about 12 hours before applying.
