Conditions after application
4 hours

Apply above 3°C; the current English TDS also says not to apply when air is below 3°C. Do not apply above 85% relative humidity or when temperatures are forecast to drop below 3°C within 4 hours. Use a clean, dry, properly prepared surface. No maximum air temperature, general surface-temperature bound or numeric rain-free period is specified. For concrete masonry units, block filler or masonry surfacer is a separate preparation step requiring air, surface and material temperatures of at least 10°C; let it dry before this topcoat.
