concrete and autoclaved blockwork.
Cut out all loose or hollow portions and make
good with a 1:3 cement : sand mortar applied
over a slurry bonding coat*. Carefully remove
any soft or unsound residues of existing
adhesive without damaging the bases. Ensure
remaining adhesive residue is sound and firmly
bonded to the base.
Ceramic / Vitrified & Fully Vitrified Tile /
Terrazzo / Hard Natural Stone Bases
Check that existing finish is firmly adhering
to the base. Remove any loose or hollow
sounding areas and make good with a
1:3 cement : sand mortar over a slurry
bonding coat*.
*Slurry bonding coat is prepared by mixing 2 parts by weight
of portland cement to 1 part of ARDEX ENDURA ADMIX AD1.
Brush on the base immediately before applying mortar.
MIXING
Add 5 litres of SLURRY BOND LIQUID to 20kg
of SLURRY BOND POWDER. Mix thoroughly until
a slump free mortar is obtained. The mixture is
immediately ready for use.
APPLICATION
1. Spread not more than 1 sq.m. at a time,
apply the adhesive to the wall or floor
surface.
2. Comb the adhesive to the required depth
(between 3 - 6 mm) using a suitable trowel.
3. Press the tiles firmly into position with a
slight twisting action, checking periodically
that good contact is maintained with the
back of each tile. Leave no voids behind
tiles when solid-bed fixing.
4. Tiles should be fixed within 10 minutes
of adhesive being applied, depending on
the porosity of the surface and atmospheric
conditions. Tiles can be adjusted up to
5 - 10 minutes after fixing. Touch the
adhesive ribs periodically and if a skin
has formed, remove the adhesive and
apply a new layer.
5. Leave adequate joints between individual
wall and floor tiles unless self spacing tiles
are used.
6. Clean off surplus adhesive from the tile
face and between joints.
7. Do not use in damp conditions and
temperature less than 50C
GROUTING
Grouting should not be carried out for at least
24 hours. Use the appropriate grouting
material from the range of cementitious and
epoxy grouts.
NOTE: The addition of ARDEX ENDURA
ADMIX GT1 to cement-based grouts will
enhance adhesion to tile edges, water-
resistance and improves flexibility.
