Installation:
All surfaces should be between 40°F (4°C) and 90°F (32°C) and structurally sound, clean and free of all dirt, oil, grease, loose peeling paint, concrete sealers or curing compounds. Rough or uneven concrete surfaces should be made smooth with Latex Portland Cement Underlayment to provide a wood float finish or better. Do not level with gypsum or asphalt based products. Dry, dusty concrete slabs or masonry should be cleaned, dampened and excess water swept off and allowed to dry. Installation must not be made on a damp surface. New concrete slabs shall be damp cured and 28 days old before application. All slabs must be plumb and true to within 1/4" (6 mm) in 10 ft (3 m).
Application:
Clean substrate using a damp sponge or towel. Apply adhesive to substrate with flat side of trowel and work into substrate. Then comb the adhesive with the notched side of the trowel, removing excess material. Spread only as much as can be tiled while adhesive is wet and tacky, approximately 20-30 minutes. Press, do not slide, tile into the adhesive and align. Beat or twist all tile until fully bedded. Check work regularly for full contact between tile back and adhesive.
Note: Do not set tile in adhesive that has developed a skin. Scrape surface clean and spread fresh material.
Grouting:
Grout installation after a minimum of 24-48 hours curing time at 70°F (21°C). Grout with SpectraLOCK PRO Premium Grout, PermaColor Grout mixed with water.
Storage:
Keep the container closed when not using. Store in warm area 70°F (21°C) for 12 hours before using. Do not allow to freeze.
