A day of curing is required after the final finishing.
On the second day, clean water needs to be poured on the floor, so that a column of 2 mm of water can stand for 3 days.
Precaution:
For better results, it is necessary to prepare a homogenous mixture of Tata Black and Cement in a dry state before adding water.
