How to Use
Surface Preparation
All surfaces should be between 4°C and 40°C and structurally sound, clean and free of all dirt, oil, grease, loose peeling paint, concrete sealers or curing compounds. Dry, dusty concrete slabs or masonry should be dampened and excess water swept off. Installation may be made on a damp surface. All slabs must be plumb and true to within ¼”(6mm) in 10 ft(3m).
Follow the standard rules of creating the movement joints for Adhered screeds, Non-adhered screeds and Floating screeds and the thicknesses of respective screeds as per the international standards. For better performance of screeds, it is also recommended to use wire mesh as specified by the engineer at site.
Priming for Adhered screeds
Mix TILE MATE-100 with 50% water by weight and make lump free slurry. Apply an even thickness of the slurry to the cleaned substrate using a brush or roller to ensure the primer is absorbed into the substrate. Each 25 kg bag of TILE MATE-100 will cover 25 Sq. Mtrs. approximately.
While the slurry bond coat is in wet and tacky condition, place the screed prepared by mixing TILE MATE-100 with Aggregates and Water. Spread the screed material on floor surface and make the surface even taking enough care to check the required levels of floor and compact well.
Tiling by Wet – On – Wet method
For placing tiles apply CONBOND SBR-115, slurry bond coat over the green Screed bed & install tiles. The tiles shall be placed & beaten in the screed while the slurry bond coat is wet and sticky.
Tiling by Thin set Adhesive Method
Leave the compacted screed for a period of 3 days for air curing and install tiles using a suitable thin set adhesive. Grouting of tile joints can commence after 48 hours from the completion of tiling.
