Limitations Do not use when temperatures are below +5°C (air and surface) and frost is
expected. It is not suitable for gluing in direct sunlight – protect from rapid
drying. Not suitable for metal, plastic materials and wood-based materials. Not
suitable for sticking tiles to heated floors with rapid increases in temperature
(electric matting). Do not use on lime plaster, paint coatings, wood and old
tiles.
It cannot be used for gluing tiles made of high-absorbent materials like slate
and marble, etc.
Surface preparation: The substrate must be solid and loadbearing, mature enough, free of any
efflorescence, dirt, dust, oil, grease, wax, paint residues and other materials
that can reduce adhesion and the adhesion of the mix to the substrate. The
substrate must be uniformly porous and must not be frozen. If the surface is
very absorbent, we recommend using primer S2802A or S-T70; otherwise it
will significantly reduce the open time of the applied adhesive and reduce the
adhesive bonding. Not suitable for use on surfaces made out of wood, metal
and plastic!
Mixing the adhesive mortar: Use potable water or water complying with ČSN EN 1008 for preparation.
Thoroughly mix the dry matter with water in a quantity of 6.0 to 7.5 liters to 25
kg of the mix until a smooth, homogeneous mixture is reached and let stand
for 5 minutes. Do not allow the formation of lumps. Then mix thoroughly again.
For mixing, it is recommended using a drill with an adapter (stirrer) at low
speed (500 rpm). The prepared material can be used for 2-3 hours.
Using the adhesive mortar: Apply a thin layer across the entire surface of the substrate using the smooth
side of the trowel. Then using the notched side, apply a “combed” coating by
contacting the surface with the teeth of the trowel. The contact area between
the component and the substrate indoors must be more than 65% and
outdoors more than 90%. The tiles or pavement are then placed onto the
prepared substrate and pressed at the same time. The maximum thickness of
the applied layer is 5 mm. ATTENTION, do not pre-moisten the tiles or
pavement!
The period during which the tiles or pavement can be placed (open time) is
about 20 minutes. This time is usually shortened during conditions of extreme
heat. It is best to try the gluing mortar with your fingertips to see if it does not
create a non-sticking crust. If the mortar is defective, the entire non-sticking
layer needs to be scraped away and a new adhesive layer reapplied to the
cleaned surface. Wait at least 24 hours before grouting wall tile; other tiles can
be grouted after two days at the earliest and can come under load after seven
days. When gluing tiles outdoors (frost-resistant, sintered, or designated
otherwise), we recommend applying a thin layer of glue to the paving tile
using the smooth side of the trowel. Then apply a thicker layer of adhesive
mortar on the substrate using the smooth side of the trowel and then comb it
with the notched side with the teeth a minimum of 6x6 mm.

Note: Tiles with highly compact shards and a maximum absorption rate of
0.5% are considered frost-resistant. Their surface can be smooth, polished,
satinato, embossed, imitative natural stone tiles, etc. These types are suitable
not only for indoors, but mainly outdoors.
Gluing thermal insulation
materials:
Styrofoam plates and mats made of mineral wool are placed in unison without
filling in the gaps. For surfaces with an unevenness of greater than ±4 mm,
the sealing compound should be applied to the insulation material in a
thickness of up to 2 cm around the edges and in 2-3 places on the inside in
the same thickness. At least 40% of the plate must represent the contact
surface after sticking. For surfaces with an unevenness of less than ±4 mm,
the sealing compound is applied to the insulation material with a notched
trowel with tooth size up to 10 mm.
Wait at least 24 hours before anchoring the glued plates. The façade can be
smoothed after 1-2 days.
Gritting insulating materials: You can then proceed to strengthening and reinforcing the insulation material
with an embedded fiberglass mesh (gauze). This procedure should be
performed in two steps: applying the glue and pressing the reinforcing fabric
into the fresh layer. Place the gauze with an overlap of at least 10 cm. Add an
extra reinforcement layer in corners and around jambs and set corner slats in
place. Level and smooth the surface. The final thickness of the reinforcing
material is about 4-5 mm. The reinforcement layer hardens in approximately
48 – 72 hours, after which it can be sanded and a leveling layer applied.
Note: It is necessary to sand façade plates made of EPS again if the
reinforcing layer is laid more than 14 days after gluing the insulation material.
Precautions Adding additional aggregates, binders and additives to the ready mix or sifting
it is not permitted.
Immediately clean any possible contamination of aluminum and anodized
finishing edges, otherwise a permanent stain may occur. If gluing tiles without
surface treatment (enamel), such as natural stone like slate, sandstone and
other material with surfaces that are difficult to clean, take the added
precaution of not staining them during placement. It is very difficult to remove
cement glue from the surface, and then only by machine.

Hands: water and soap, hand cream regeneration.
