Tile Adhesive – Grey Premium

Application

Direction And Surface Preparation For Use

Can be used for interior wall and floor and exterior floor applications over masonry, concrete, mortar beds and cement plaster in residential & commercial buildings. All surfaces should be between 40* F (4*C) and 104*F (40*C). Apply tile adhesive to the substrate with a spatula and comb with a notched spatula to ensure full bedding, Adhesive should at least cover 90% of the surface of each wall tile/stone etc.

Clean and roughen the surface to be tiled, Remove dust,Grease,Oil,Paint Etc. Dry dusty concrete slabs or masonry should be dampened, and excess water swept off. Installation may be made on a damp surface. For new concrete slab should be cured for 28 days before application. Expansion joints should be provided in the substrate and do not cover the joints with mortar.

Add one part of portable water to 2.5 parts of Tile Adhesive White by volume into a mixing bowl and mix to form a thick lump free and trowel able consistency, Add little more water if required only to obtain workable mix. (Mixing can be done by hand or slow speed mixer) Leave the adhesive to stand for 5-10 minutes before using. Place the wall tiles/stones into the moist ribbed bed and press firmly, Adjustments if any can be made within 10 minutes. Use the proper sized notched trowel to ensure full bedding of the tile. Back butter when large format tiles (> 12” x 12”) to provide full bedding and firm support. Remove the residual material before drying. (Addition of Chennai Paints Grout Admix+ partially or completely replacing water would enhance the bond and flexibility of adhesive.) Use spacers to provide grout joints between tiles/ stones. When the adhesive is set remove the spacers.

During installation of tile/stone on the external floors, to create spaces between the tile/stone to fill up with grouts providing of spacers is recommended. (If the spacers are not used the surface movements can push tile/stone away from the substrate causing de-bonding of tile/stone) While applying exterior tile/stone, providing spacers on the periphery of the area without allowing the tile/stone to be bound by the peripheral masonry work/plaster
