Surface Preparation
Remove all tile adhesive excess that is at a level higher
than half of the tile thickness.
All the joints should be free from dust, loose materials
& traces of foreign materials, etc. Neutralize the tiles’
water absorption by applying clean potable water.
Do not leave water pooling in the joints.
Mixing
For Grout mortar preparation, pour into the mixing
container 5.2-6.8 liters of water for each 20Kg bag or
6.5-8.5 Litres for 25Kg bag of Vetonit Tile Grout. Add the
powder to the water and mix with a low-speed electric
drill fitted with a suitable paddle for 3-4 minutes until
achieving a uniform, lump-free consistency. Allow the
mixed material to stand for about 10 minutes and remix
briefly without adding water.
Blend Vetonit Tile Grout manually for small quantities
and maintain the correct mixing ratio of powder to
water.
If required, add 0.5 Ltr of Saveto Bond 2 to the mixing
water, followed by powder’s addition. Use the mixed
material within 1 hour.
Do not add water to the mixture once the mortar grout
starts to harden.
Application
Apply Vetonit Tile Grout using either a rubber blade, a
grouting trowel, a rubber spatula, or a sponge.
Spread the mixed grout diagonally across the tile joints
and firmly press it with a rubbing pad covered with a
sponge rubber spatula to ensure filling all the gaps.
Remove excess grout that remains on tiles using the
same tool.
After the grout initially dries, from 15-30 minutes,
depends on the ambient temperature & humidity,
clean the tiles and remove all excess material with a
wet sponge.
After full drying, clean the surface of the tiles with a dry
cloth or dispensable cotton towels.
When washing & drying the tiles, ensure not to rub the
tile joints too deep.
Keep the grout moist for the first 2 days after application
to ensure achieving good hardened properties.
