Method of Application
-
Surface Prearation
- Surface must be free of dirt, oil, grease, scaling paint, curing agents, dust, loose particles, efflorescence or foreign material.
- Spray sufficient amount of clean potable water to neutralize the suction of the background.
- Allow free water to evaporate completely before the application of tile adhesive.
- Mixing
Add 25 kg tile adhesive bag to approximately 7.00 liters of clean potable water gradually and mix with suitable electrical agitator. Allow to stand for approximately 5 minutes to completely dissolve the chemical additives. Mix the material again after 5 minutes. Do not add any additional water once mixing is completed. Mix only what can be applied within 30-45 minutes.
- Application
Apply TAG-300+ with a 3-5mm notch trowel on surface and bed the tile firmly to ensure good bonding. For bigger tile sizes use an 8-10mm notch trowel. Leave clearance joints of a minimum space of 2mm and make adjustments within 10 minutes.
- Curing
Moist curing for 2 days (3-4 times daily)
