1. Atmospheric conditions for installation:
- the air temperature must be above +5⁰ C and not higher than +30⁰ C.

2. Inspection and Preparation of the Surface for Adhesion:
a) Check for Surface Stability:
Dust presence: Check the surface with a bare hand or a dark cloth for dust or efflorescence.
Hygroscopicity: Dampen the wall with a brush or spray to check absorbency.
Flatness check.
b) Actions after Surface Inspection:
If necessary, fill low spots or level the entire surface.
Apply primer (not concrete contact). The goal is to equalize the absorbency of the surface and prevent the adhesive from drying too quickly.

3. Adhesion Process:
Make sure that the profiles and ornaments are dust-free.
Apply adhesive around the edge of the detail in a frame shape with a border height of 0.5 to 4 cm maximum (spot-gluing is not acceptable).
