Cementitious Adhesive for Indoor Use

Adhesive for indoor use

High porosity tiles

Excellent workability

White cement-based adhesive, classified as an adhesive for indoor use according to Standard UNE-EN 12004.

Evitacol Wihte CE is available in 25 kg paper sacks with moisture-proof plastic lining, dispatched on shrink-wrapped pallets weighing a total of 1280 kg (64 sacks).

Applications

Tiling indoor floors and finishes using ceramic tiles of medium/high porosity (> 3%). A double glue technique should be used for tiles larger than 30 cm x 30 cm.

Application Surfaces

Conventional surfaces and cement-based mortar floors and finishes. The application surface must be resistent, perfectly set and free from dust, paint, oil, etc.

Instructions

Add water and mix manually or mechanically until you reach a homogeneous paste of a workable consistency.

Leave the paste to stand for 5 minutes and remix before applying.

Spread the paste on the surface in sections of a surface area no larger than 2 m2, combing with a suitable trowel. If double gluing is required, spread the mixture over the back of the tile as well.

Put the ceramic tiles on top of the freshly-laid adhesive, pressing lightly to ensure that the whole tile surface comes into contact with the adhesive, filling any grooves.

Leave a joint of a width of at least 1.5 mm between indoor tiles. Wait 24 hours before grouting wall tiles and 48 hours before grouting floor tiles.

Respect all perimeter and structural joints. Place one partition joint every 50 m2 on indoor floors.

Warnings and Recommendations

Do not apply this product when frost is forecasted
Do not apply at temperatures below 5°C or above 35°C
Do not apply in areas where there is a risk of standing water
In extreme weather conditions (wind or high temperatures), the product will dry more quickly than usual. This will result in a shorter open time
In high temperatures, windy conditions or if the application surface is very absorbent, it is advisable to moisten the surface and wait for the film of water to disappear before applying the product

Check, periodically, that a surface film has not formed on the adhesive paste once it has been spread onto the surface. If a film has formed, remove the product and apply a fresh coat
Check that the paste is sticky enough by periodically lifting one of the tiles already in place to ensure that it is well stuck down
