SURFACE PREPARATION APPLICATION: After gypsum panels are applied, mix M100 according to directions on bag with tap water, keeping in mind not to mix more than can be used in 24 hours, as this product contains no preservatives and can spoil in a very short length of time. Also do not apply when temperatures are below 55 F. Cover joint with a thin layer of compound and embed tape, leaving about 1/32 of compound under feathered edge. Let dry and sand lightly. Wet sanding is recommended where possible. Apply second coat, feathering 2 inches beyond first coat, let dry and sand lightly then apply third coat 2 inches beyond second coat. Sand lightly when dry. Corner bead, inside corners, and nail heads require at least three coats of joint compound. Mix in slightly more water for texturing. Roll and crowfoot texture patterns require heavier viscosity than splatter and spray textures. Avoid over-thinning as it can cause pinholes, cratering, and lack of adhesion. All joint cement and textures must be thoroughly dry before painting.
