The jointing compound is produced on the basis of cement, iron oxide paint, polymers, and additives controlling the setting time. It is used for jointing faience, terracotta, marble facings, granite, granitogres™ (fine stoneware tiles), stone facings, cleft plates, hewn plates, brick masonry, glass brick masonry, ceramic mosaics, etc.
PACKING: 1 kg in three-ply paper bags with polyethylene insert
OPERATION METHOD: Add to 3 parts by weight of the mixture 1 part by weight of water and stir manually or with a mechanical mixer until obtaining a homogenous mixture. Leave it for about 15 minutes so that the components solve, then stir again. If necessary, add water to obtain the desired consistency. The mixture thus obtained is ready for work. It is applied with rubberised mortarboard, diagonally to the plates. After thickening, the joints are shaped with a mortarboard with foamed polyurethane cover, or foamed polyurethane sponge. One hour after the shaping of joints, the plates are cleaned. After the complete drying of the joints, they may be processed (fixed) at will with MULTIFIX or SILICONFIX.
STORAGE: In original packing, stacked on wooden pallets, in dry and ventilated storerooms. NOTE: Protect from moisture and water! No.
