Application
  • Surface Preparation :All surfaces must be sound and thoroughly clean before CHEMTILE MP55 is applied. All traces of grease or oil must be removed with suitable degreaser. All loose particles of mortar, old wallpaper, paint etc., must be physically removed. In case of cementations surfaces, the areas of application must be thoroughly wetted with water to obtain saturated surface dry condition. In case of smooth surfaces, pre wetting of substrate with water is not essential.
  • Mixing : CHEMTILE MP55 should be mixed with water in the ratio of 3: 1 by volume or 4:1 by weight. While mixing, add powder to the water to avoid lump formation. A slow speed drill fitted with a suitable mixing paddle is recommended for mixing. Hand Mixing may also be resorted to if small quantities are mixed. (Note: Use of chilled water in extreme temperatures will increase open time of CHEMTILE MP55
  • Application : CHEMTILE MP55. is spread on the substrate to a uniform thickness of 2mm to 12mm(min to max). This is then combed horizontally with a notched trowel. The tiles are then placed firmly into the adhesive bed ensuring good contact with the mortar by a twisting motion.
  • Finishing : The excess material shall be removed with a damp cloth before it sets. Joint grouting with CHEMAX JOINT Grout may be commenced 24 hours after tiles have been fixed.
  • Packaging : CHEMTILE MP55 is supplied in 20KG AND 25 KG Bag.
  • Coverage : Approximately 1.3 kg of CHEMTILE MP 55is required per sq.meter when uniformly applied at 1mm thickness. Material consumption will increase if the substrate is not even.
  • Shelf life : 12 months in unopened bags under normal warehouse conditions. CHEMTILE MP55. must be stored in a cool dry place.
