Application

Important:

Apply sufficient adhesive to ensure adequate ‘wetting’ of the backs of the tiles.

Coverage on the back of the tiles must be 100 %.

Tiling must be carried out on freshly applied adhesive. Exert adequate pressure to ensure 100 % complete and uniform contact with the adhesive to achieve optimum adhesion.

If a skin forms on the surface of the adhesive, immediately remove the adhesive layer with a trowel, discard material and apply a fresh layer of adhesive.

Protect freshly applied material from freezing conditions and rain, etc.

For natural stone tiles, always carry out a preliminary test application first.

Note:

On cementitious substrates, the product can be used for laying non-absorbent tiles indoors up to 8 ft2 (e.g. 2 ft × 4 ft). On walls up to 8 ft height, non-heated floors, and outdoor applications up to 4 ft2 (e.g. 2 ft × 2 ft).

For tiles > 900 cm2 (e.g. 30 × 30 cm), the double-spreading (buttering) technique is always recommended.

  • Apply sufficient adhesive to the prepared fixing surfaces with the flat side of the trowel.
  • Comb additional adhesive with appropriate square notched trowel to the required bed thickness.
  • Wherever needed (for large tiles), back butter the tiles for full bedding.
  • Place tiles into wet, sticky adhesive and use a rubber mallet to fully embed the tiles.
  • Adjust tiles if required. Provide support wherever needed.
  • Clean off surplus adhesive from the tile face and between tile joints before the adhesive has dried.
