Wrap the weather-resistant barrier and metal lath with a minimum of 16" around its outside and inside corners.
- New, Clean, and Untreated Concrete and Masonry Surfaces: Examine newly poured concrete closely to ensure that its finished surface contains no releasing agents. If it does contain form oil or release agents, etch the surface with muriatic acid, rinse and/or score with a wire brush, or use high-pressure water or sandblasting device to remove.

Mortar Mixing

Application

- Butter the back of each stone unit completely with mortar before pressing the units firmly into position on the soft mortar bed.
- Wiggle and apply slight pressure to the unit to ensure firm bonding, which may cause the mortar to extrude slightly.
- Place units with uniform mortar joints. Stone joints should not be over ½” in width.
- Remove excess mortar and do not allow it to set up on the face of units.
- Rake and tool the joint before the mortar sets.
- Clean and finish the joints.
