SURFACE PREPARATION

  • 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, sealers, 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 the following:

APPLICATION

As an Adhesive

  1. Spread approximately 0.5m² at a time. Press firmly into position before the adhesive skins. Ensure that the tiles are well bedded and that no voids occur under the tiles. Refer to ‘directions’ table to the left for trowel sizing.

As a Grout

  1. Using a rubber float or squeegee, work the grout paste deep into the joints, making sure the grout is not just sitting on top.
  2. Remove excess grout from the surface of the tiles with the float or squeegee using a diagonal motion to avoid dislodging the embedded grout.
  3. A primary clean-up should be done next by wiping over with a damp cloth or sponge.
  • Allow product to set before grouting
  • Allow product to set firmly before return to service

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

CLEANING OF TOOLS

  • Clean tools and equipment with water before the adhesive dries.
