• Pour 6,0-7,0 liters of clean cold water into a clean container. Slowly pour the powder Teknodeko (25 kg) into a container with water and use a low-speed mixer to knead the composition for at least 10 minutes until a homogeneous mass is obtained. Leave the resulting mixture for 5 minutes, then mix again. 
• An equal amount of water should be used for each new batch of the compound. Otherwise, you can get a different shade.
