Instructions for use

Preparation of the surface

All surfaces must be dimensionally stable according to IS 1443-1972, level, cured, undamaged, compact, rigid, resistant, dry and free from any debonding agents and from damp rising. It is good practice to dampen highly absorbent concrete surfaces or apply a coat of Primer A Eco.

Adhesive preparation

Mixing water ≈ 6.5 – 7.0 litres of clean water per bag.

Application

To guarantee maximum adhesion it is necessary to apply a sufficient layer of adhesive. Large, rectangular sizes with sides > 30 cm may require adhesive to be applied directly on the back surface of the tile. Check samples to make sure the adhesive has been transferred to the back of the material. Create elastic expansion joints: - ≈ 10 m2 in external applications, - ≈ 25 m2 in internal applications, - every 8 metres in long, narrow applications. Respect all structural, fractionizing, and perimeter joints present in the surfaces.

Special Notes

Materials and special surfaces

Marble, Natural Stones and Recomposed Materials that are subject to deformation or staining due to water absorption require a reactive adhesive. Marble, natural stones and recomposed materials in general may have characteristics that vary even with reference to materials of the same chemical and physical nature. For this reason it is essential you consult Kerakoll India Helpline to request specific indications or to carry out a test on a sample of the material. Check for the presence of any really consistent traces of rock dust created during cutting, and remove them if found

Do not use

On timber, metal, plastic or resilient materials, deformable surfaces or subject to vibrations. On screeds, plasters/renders, not yet cured concrete. On surfaces subject to vibrations. On plasterboard and fibre-cement slabs. On smooth prefabricated concrete.

Warning 

- Product for professional use
- Abide by any standards and national regulations
- Do not use the adhesive to correct surface irregularities greater than 15 mm - protect from direct rainfall for at least 24 hrs
- The temperature, ventilation and absorption of the surface and covering materials to be fixed may cause variations in the adhesive workability and setting times
- Use the right size of toothed trowel for the format of the tile or slab - guarantee a full-bed in all external laying operations
- If necessary, ask for the safety data sheet

Maximum mass per area 1405 g/m2 Thickness as adhesive layer 0.9 ± 0.1 mm Thickness as sealant between tiles 3.9 ± 0.1 mm As finishing material for all exposed interior and concealed or inacessible surfaces. When intended for bulkhead and ceiling, the product may be applied to any non-combustible support having a thickness equal or greater than 10 mm and a density ≥ 656 kg/m3 . When intended for decks the product may be applied to any metallic support, any non combustibile support an any material having low flame spread characteristics. Do not use On porous flooring for which more specific or alternative chemical resistances are required compared with those listed in the chemical resistances table, to grout elastic expansion or fractionizing joints or on substrates that are not fully dry and subject to moisture rising.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE 
Preparation of substrates As a grout: before grouting joints, check that tiles have been laid correctly and are anchored perfectly to the substrate. Substrates must be perfectly dry. Grout joints in accordance with the recommended waiting time indicated on the relative data sheet for the adhesive used. For mortar substrates, wait at least 7 – 14 days depending on screed thickness, ambient weather conditions and on the level of absorption of the covering and the substrate. Any water or moisture rising can cause vapour pressure to accumulate, which may in turn loosen. 

Breathable, anti-alkali and chlorineresistant, elastomeric, Nanotech Technology based cementitious membrane for the flexible waterproofing with high levels of adhesion and durability of surfaces before laying tiles using adhesives. Aquastop Nanoflex develops a smooth, creamy mixture paste with a consistency that can be adjusted by varying the amount of water, allowing for optimal workability according to specific site conditions. It ensures maximum adhesion to the bonded system.
