• Binder: Portland cement and hydrated lime
• Aggregates
• Proprietary additives

12 months from date of production if stored properly in original, unopened and undamaged sealed packaging.

Store dry, off ground and protect from rain and moisture.

• Coverage will vary depending on substrate, thickness and texture of the application.
• Approximate coverage per 90 lb. (40.8 kg) bag is 90-135 ft² (8.36-12.5 m² ).

• The surface of the plaster “brown coat” base or concrete partially determines the texture, color and final result of the finish.
• After application, of the brown coat rod, darby or trowel it to produce the specified level.
• Next, hard float the base to eliminate “slick spots” and open the surface to enable a good mechanical bond for the finish coat.
• Hand application over portland cement plaster: Prior to application of SikaWall® Santa Barbara Mission Finish, the portland cement base shall be dampened with clean water to control and equalize suction. Allow surface moisture to dissipate prior to application of the SikaWall® Santa Barbara Mission Finish. For application over any surface other than a portland cement brown coat, contact Sika Facades Technical Support for proper preparation.

• Read the entire label before using this product.
• Using a mechanical plaster mixer, start with approximately three gallons of cool, clean potable water add one 90 lb. bag of the appropriate tint Base and mix to a thin consistency until it is smooth and free of lumps.
• Add all of the SikaWall Color Packs (1 per bag for a standard color, a maximum of 4 standard 1 lb. color packs can be added per 90 lb. bag for increased color depth) to be used for one “batch” and mix until color is evenly dispersed, (approximately 1 to 2 minutes).
• Thin the mixture with water and then add the remaining bags of stucco finish (adjusting water as necessary) to correspond with the number of color packs mixed in step 3. Allow material to mix at a somewhat stiff consistency for approximately 15 minutes. Add the remaining amount of water to achieve the desired consistency, and then disengage the mixing blades for approximately 5 to 10 minutes in order to allow the material to slake. Doing this allows the material to start its initial set. Re-engage the mixing blades for approximately 5 minutes, adjusting the water and mixing only long enough to achieve uniformity. The material is now ready to be removed from the mixer and applied to the wall. 
• For additional batches of the same material, thin the remaining mixture with water, then repeat adding the color packs and mixing as described. Wash out mixer completely to change colors.
• SikaWall® Santa Barbara Mission Finish is a finish material installed at approximately 1/8” thick, it is not for use as a stucco base material.

Note: All SikaWall cement/lime finish products should be mechanically mixed for a minimum of 20 minutes after the last bag of stucco base is added to fully disperse the color.

• Color coat shall be approximately 1/8” thick.
• Hand application over a portland cement plaster brown coat: Prior to application of SikaWall® Santa Barbara Mission Finish stucco finish, the portland cement base coat shall be dampened with clean water to control and equalize suction. Allow surface moisture to dissipate prior to the application of the Stucco Finish.
• Trowel or float apply an even coat completely covering the base coat and allow it to set although prior to drying out, trowel apply a second tight coat of the same material over the first to the desired finish level.
• Traditional Smooth Santa Barbara Mission Finish
  • Allow the application to set although prior to drying out, trowel the surface to the desired or approved finish level using as little water as possible.
• 30/30 Float Finish
  • Before the second coat has set, use a float to bring the aggregate to the surface to achieve the desired sand finish.
• During periods of hot or dry weather condition, a light spray (mist) of clean water is recommended over the stucco finish. SikaWall® Santa Barbara Mission Finish will normally dry and set the same day. Allow 28 days for curing. 
• Color and performance may be affected by the addition of field additives. Field additives are not to be used except at the direction of the Sika Facades Technical Support.
• Variations in color due to weather, job conditions, and method of application should be expected. To change the color of SikaWall® Santa Barbara Mission Finish that has not been painted or sealed apply SikaWall Allegro II Cement Coating.
