Prepare the surface as always. For deep cavities use a calcium hydroxide liner. 2. Mixing ratio: 1 level spoon of powder / 2 drops of liquid. Lightly tap the bottle of powder against the hand before dispensing. Do not shake or invert. Hold the liquid bottle vertically upright and squeeze gently when dispensing a liquid. 3. For mixing use a metal or plastic spatula and a glass slab or paper mixing pad. Divide powder into two parts. Mix the first half of powder with liquid for 10 seconds, and then add the remainder. Mix until exact consistency is reached. The total mixing time is 30 seconds. Do not add powder in small portions. 4. The working area must be kept dry. Apply the mixed cement with a suitable instrument to both restorative and prepared tooth immediately after mixing. Total working time is 2 minutes including mixing. Excess cement may be removed immediately or after the cement has been set. Do not attempt to remove excess cement in the phase of setting (1.5-6 minutes from start of mix) as adhesion may be impaired. 5. After 8 minutes from the start of mixing restoration is ready for finishing.
