SUBSTRATE PREPARATION
Adhesive can be applied on even and compact substrates, free of any substances that reduce
adherence (grease, bitumen, oil, paint, dust etc.). Concrete should be at least 1 month old.
Cement screeds and plasters should be fully cured. Anhydrite (residual moisture below 0.5%)
substrates should be mechanically roughened and cleaned from dust. Aerated concrete should
be free from dust. Substrates must not be wet. Any existing dirt, loose layers and paint coating
shall be mechanically removed. Absorbent substrates shall be dampen and remove excess
water before application.
APPLICATION
Pour VURA FasTile into a container with the precisely measured amount of clean water and stir
with a drill and mixer until a homogeneous mass without lumps is obtained. Leave for 5 min. and
then stir again. Apply the mortar with a suitable notched trowel. Use the proper sized notch
trowel to ensure full bedding in the tile. Do not soak tiles in the water. The back buttering
method shall be used for larger tiles and for outdoor applications (ie. additionally a thin layer of
the mortar should be spread on the tile's back side, contact area > 90%). Place the tiles only
during the open time of the adhesive. Fresh excess mortar can be removed with water,
hardened material can only be removed mechanically. Grouting on the wall can be done after 8
hrs in (Gres tiles) and after 24 hrs in porous tiles using VURA grouts. Floors are set to light traffic
after approx. 24 hrs. Expansion joints, joints at the corners of walls and floor and around sanitary
equipment shall be filled with sealants or shall be treated with appropriate treatment.
