Put the specified amount of additive in the first coat it will give accurate amount on label or on the tech sheet for the product , if you have to build the wall out will two sand cement coats then scratch the first coat before it dries as if you try to scratch it when its dry it wont scratch, i would recommend scudding the wall instead of glue. & finally i would leave for a day before adding any more coats
