10 Litres of Davco Grey One Pot adhesive cover approximately 7.5m2 (based on a 6mm notched trowel)

Select a trowel with an appropriate square-notch size for the size and type of tile, as per the following:

Use appropriate personal protective equipment.

• All surfaces must be installed according to manufacturer’s instructions and relevant Australian Standard(s) and be structurally sound, dry, clean and free from movement, oil, grease, wax, curing compounds, release agents and any other loose or contaminating material. Thoroughly clean old surfaces, or new surfaces that have been treated, prior to tiling.
• Deeply contaminated surfaces must be scabbled / abraded to a clean, sound surface. Expose at least 80% of the original substrate of painted surfaces.
• Surfaces should be prepared and primed as per table below:

Laying the tiles.

1. Deposit a quantity of adhesive onto the prepared substrate. – Do not apply more adhesive than can be tiled within the open time of the product, usually from a single tile up to around 1m2 at a time.
2. Hold the notched trowel at an angle of 60º or greater to the substrate.
3. Spread the adhesive over the area where tile is to be applied, forming straight rows of adhesive “beads”.
4. Where “back buttering” is required, use the straight side of the trowel to apply a thin covering of adhesive to the back of the tile.
5. Position the tile on the beaded adhesive and press firmly.
6. Move the tile forward and then back at 90º across the direction of the beads to ensure all beads are flattened
7. Leaving no voids under the tile. Occasionally lift a tile after placing it to check that the beads are fully compressed and that sufficient coverage has been achieved (90–100%). Replace the tile.
8. After laying a section at a time, remove any excess adhesive from the grout joint and the surface of the tiles with a damp cloth while the adhesive is still wet.

Note: Setting time of adhesive is affected by site conditions, climate and could be faster or slower than specified.

Clean tools and equipment with water before the adhesive dries.
