Surface Preparation
The surface should be sound, clean, free from loose
material, oil, grease, laitance, dirt, curing compound,
etc.
Wet all surfaces (except gypsum board) with clean
water before Vetonit Porcelain Tile Fix’s application. The
surface should appear damp with no water pooling.
Mixing
For the mortar adhesive preparation, pour into a
container 5-7 liters of water for each 20 Kg bag of
Porcelain Tile Fix.
Add the powder to the water and mix for 3-4
minutes using a low- speed electric drill fitted with a
suitable paddle until achieving a uniform, lump-free
consistency. Allow the mixed material to stand for
about 10 minutes and remix briefly without adding
further water.
Blend Vetonit Porcelain Tile Fix manually for small
quantities and maintain the correct amount of powder
to water.
If required, add 0.5 Ltr of Vetobond AB432 to the mixing
water, followed by powder’s addition. Use the mixed
material within 2 hours.
Do not add water to the mixture once the mortar
adhesive starts to harden.
Application
Spread the mixed mortar adhesive, and firmly press it
onto the surface that will be tiled; work with a notched
trowel. Spread the mortar adhesive to an area that can
be tiled within 10-15 minutes. Press the tiles firmly over
the mortar adhesive and immediately knock them into
the desired position. Adjust the position of the tiles, if
required, within its adjustability time of 10-15 minutes
after installation.
Allow the installed tiles to remain undisturbed for at
least 48 hours. Mortar adhesive must not rise between
the tile joints higher than halfway the thickness of the
tiles. It is recommended to use Vetonit Tile Grout to fill
the joint gaps after 2 days of tile installation.
