Recommended Substrates
Will bond to all substrates listed below, but refer to the flooring installation system for specific installation recommendations:
- Concrete on (all grade levels) according to ASTM F710 and Preparation of Concrete Subfloors
- Suspended Wood Subfloors and Panel Underlayments
- Properly mixed and applied powder underlayments and embossing levelers
- Ceramic, Terrazzo, Marble, Polymeric (seamless) Floors, or Metal – when properly prepared with S-194
- Radiant-heated subfloors where the surface temperature does not exceed 85oF (29o C)
DO NOT USE OVER: Concrete with excessive moisture and/or alkali; existing resilient flooring; substrates treated with fire-retardant chemicals, fungicides, preservatives, release agents, adhesive removers, sealers, curing compounds or other incompatible treatments
Application Instructions
- Condition area to be installed, adhesive, and tile at 65° F (18° C) or above for 48 hours before, during, and for 48 hours after installation.
- Subfloor must be smooth, sound, dry, clean, and free of dirt, wax, polish, paint, and all other foreign matter which may interfere in a good bond, including curing agents and sealers.
- Always run a moisture and alkali tests over concrete on any grade level or any other substrate over on- or below-grade concrete. For accurate results, curing agents must be removed in areas where tests will be run. Moisture test results should not exceed 3 pounds/1000 sq ft/24 hours for a calcium chloride test or 75% for a relative humidity in-situ probe test. Alkali readings should be 5 to 9.
- Stir any liquid on the surface into the adhesive and full spread using the recommended trowel notching.
- Allow adhesive to set open until dry to the touch, approximately 60 minutes. When dry to the touch, the adhesive will be tacky with no transfer to fingers.
- Install and fit all tile within 6 hours. Working time will vary based on job conditions, substrate, temperature and humidity.
- Place 18 inches of the copper grounding strips into the adhesive at predetermined locations. Allow 6 inches to protrude from the edge of the floor up the wall so the strip can later be connected to a ground. Cover the part of the strip that’s been placed in the adhesive with more adhesive.
- Allow the adhesive on the copper grounding strips to dry to the touch and then install the tile over the strips.
- Roll tile in both directions with a 100-pound roller.
- Use mineral spirits to remove wet or dried adhesive residue carefully following warnings on container.
- Do not wet wash or strip tile for at least five days after installation.
