Preparatory stage
You can work with a cleaned surface that is free of defects. Therefore, the walls are first leveled and cleaned. It is necessary to apply primer, preferably paint it so that the base is not visible through the plaster layer.

Manual plastering
If you are going to apply the composition manually, then proceed as follows:
- Using a trowel, scoop up the solution and, holding it at an angle of 60 degrees, apply the composition to the base. Make an even distribution, move in one direction, act in sections, it is important to prevent the edges from drying out.
- After about half an hour, when the composition has begun to set, rub the base and use a stainless steel grater.
- When the drying stage is completed, acrylic varnish or water repellent is applied.
If you need to take a break from work, cover the edges with masking tape.
Make an even distribution, moving in one direction.
Applying plaster using a mechanized method
You can use a pneumatic crumb thrower to quickly complete plastering. The surface is prepared using the standard method, after which the solution is poured into a special compartment, the pressure is set to 6-7 atmospheres. The distance to the wall is no more than half a meter. Processing begins from the top.

Master's recommendations
If stains appear on the base, it means that the distribution of the composition was uneven. This error can be removed by applying a new layer. But you can only work with a dried layer.
If yellow spots are found, the drying process has been disrupted. It is important to properly prepare the foundation in advance.

How to avoid mistakes
To evenly distribute the material on the base, use a metal spatula. The thickness is not made very thick, the size is determined by the size of the crumb, the thickness should not be more than 1.7 crumbs. After the composition has set for half an hour, the base is smoothed a second time. For work, take cleaned tools.

It is better to use a drill equipped with an appropriate attachment. The solution is stirred for 15 minutes or more, setting the instrument to low speed. For further storage, only closed containers are used. Then Bayramix plaster for the facade will last a long time.
