Where not to use it
The limits are as much a part of the specification as the performance. Everything here is stated on the manufacturer's data sheet.
- Interior wall surfaces only
- Washability requires the protective coat to be specified
- For a fully smooth result, self-levelling putty and an insulating bonding agent are needed first
