CERAFLEX UNIVERSAL

AREA OF USE:

"CERAFLEX UNIVERSAL" is a dry mixture based on high-quality cement, fine quartz sand, and polymer additives, recommended for facing with ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles of small and medium sizes (60x60cm), marble, polystyrene boards, and for applying mesh on mineral surfaces. The adhesive is recommended for both interior and exterior work, in areas with high humidity (from 60%), on surfaces exposed to temperature variations (-40℃...+300℃), with working temperatures between +5℃ and +25℃.

SURFACE PREPARATION:

The surface must be straight, well cleaned of dust, paint, and grease stains. Apply a layer of PRIMER (recommended GRUND SUPERIOR UNIVERSAL) on hard surfaces (concrete, cement-based plaster), or Concrete Contact (recommended BETONCONTACT EXTRA) on surfaces made of GYPSUM boards, AAC blocks, etc. Water-absorbing tiles (especially clay-based or with clay additives) must be soaked in a container with water for about 5 minutes, then removed before use. Medium/large marble or porcelain tiles should be well wiped with a damp sponge to remove the factory-applied grease layer. The adhesive is applied to both surfaces (tile/board on which it is applied).

ADHESIVE PREPARATION:

Mix the entire quantity of mixture uniformly in a container with water using a low-speed mixer, then leave it for 10 minutes to obtain a homogeneous mass, then mix again before use.

• For walls: prepare mixture in proportion of 0.2 liters of water per 1kg of dry mixture.
• For floor: 0.25 liters of water per 1kg of dry mixture.

USAGE INSTRUCTIONS:

Work should be performed at temperatures above +5℃. Apply the adhesive uniformly on the prepared surface with the flat side of the notched metal trowel, then process with the notched side at a 90-degree angle. Tiles should not be wetted before applying adhesive on them (see SURFACE PREPARATION section for details). The tile (of all types) is placed on the prepared mixture layer on the board, then pressed slowly with circular movements. If the board on which the tile was applied was treated with primer or concrete contact, its position on the wall can be adjusted for 15-25 minutes. The prepared adhesive can be used for approximately 120-160 minutes. Use only clean containers and tools. The mixture consumption on the prepared surface depends on the thickness of the applied layer. Consumption varies between (3-6m²) per 25 kg bag.

STORAGE:

Store in rooms with air humidity up to 60%, on pallets, in undamaged bags. Shelf life - 12 months from the production date (indicated on the bag).

WARRANTY CONDITIONS:
