DESCRIPTION
|
|
It is a highly
durable and elastic cement-based granite and ceramic tile
adhesive
containing polymer.
|
 |
|
AREAS OF
APPLICATION |
Used for the
adherence of covering materials such as granite, ceramics,
natural granite, big-sized ceramics and porcelain.It can be
applied to cement based plaster, concrete floor and levelled
concrete surfaces.
|
|
APPLICATION
LIMITS |
1-Can not be
applied to wood, painted, metal and gypsum plastered surfaces.
2-Can not be used on the existing ceramic-tile
surfaces, concrete wall, gypsum board and cement board particles
without prime coat which improves adherence.
Extra CERAX; has a high resistance to exterior climate, mainly
to extremes of freezing and hot weather It provides a fast and
easy application. Extra CERAX forms a solid ground with its high
adhesive resistance.

|
PREPARATION OF
SURFACE |
1. Plaster thinner
than 3 mm on the surface must be scraped and thoroughly removed.
2. Porous surfaces must be wetted and water layer should be let
to disappear, leaving a humid surface.
3. Significant irregularities or holes on teh surface must be
remedied by using BETOX Reparing Mortar Coarse at least 48 hours
prior to application of Extra CERAX Granite-Ceramic Tile
Adhesive.
4. Local repairs below 7 mm may be performed by using Cerax.
|
|
APPLICATION
REQUIREMENTS |
1. It is recommended to be applied under an ambient temperature
ranging between 5ºC and 35ºC.
2. It should not be applied to melted, frozen or hot surfaces.
3. It should not be applied to surfaces exposed to sunlight.
4. No foreign substance (lime, cement, gypsum, etc.) should be
added to the mortar prepared.
5. Mortar should not be reused after mixing it with water or dry
mortar if the period specified for its use has elapsed.
|
|
APPLICATION |
1. 6-7 liters of
water in average and 25 kg. of Extra CERAX Granite-Ceramic Tile
Adhesive should be thoroughly mixed by a mixer with a low
rotation speed or a trowel so that no lump remains in the
mortar.
2. Extra CERAX Granite-Ceramic Tile Adhesiveshould be mixed
again for 1 or 2 minutes after 5 minutes the initial mixing
process in order to obtain a homogeneous mixture.
3. Mortar should be applied to both the surface of application
and the back of ceramic tiles larger than 25 x 25 cm in order to
ensure adhesion on both sides.
4. Mortar will be applied to the surface and its thickness must
be adjusted by a notched steel trowel. The notch size of trowels
should be determined according to the size of the ceramic tile
to be affixed and smoothness of the surface of application.
5. In order to achieve satisfactory adhesion, force must be
applied by using a rubber hammer and residue air should be
discharged.
