Sometimes the needs of the site require a solution to the decorative completion of an existing surface or to the renewal of an aged pavement, particularly when the time available for completion of the work is really cut to the bone, or when the replacement ex- novo of an existing flooring would exceed substantially the estimated budget.

After this operation, there is the application of the final finish, sprayed on the surface with a gun hoppergun fed by the compressor, using the same type of mixture used for the bottom, except for the fact that the type of Colour Hardener in this case will be of different color than the bottom. In this step you define the final choice of type of finish - including antiqued, smooth, bucciardata or combed - and stencils will be removed prior to complete drying of the material. Finally, at least 8-12 hours after the removal of the stencil, you will complete everything with the application of protective resin Ideal anti-yellowing sealer that protects the surfaces from the weather and mechanical stress and brightens colors.
