Mixing

For the preparation of mortar adhesive, pour into a container 6.0-6.5 liters of water for each 20 Kg bag of Vetoset CA546. Add the powder to the water and mix with a low speed  (200-300 rpm) electric drill fitted with a suitable paddle for 3-4 minutes, until a uniform, lump-free consistency is achieved. 

Allow the mixed material to stand for about 10 minutes and briefly remix with no extra water added. 

Application

Spread and firmly pressed the mixed Vetoset CA546 on the substrate to a uniform thickness using a notched trowel. The  adhesive  mortar  to  be  spread  corresponding to an area that can be tiled in 10 minutes.

Place the tiles onto the fresh adhesive mortar with a firm pressure & slight twisting to ensure a good contact of the adhesive and knocked into position.

For best results the position of the tiles should be adjusted within 10 minutes after installation.

The adhesive mortar must not rise higher in the joint than halfway the thickness of tiles. 

Remove excess adhesive with a damp cloth before it dries. Joints grouting between tiles may be commenced after 24 hours for walls and 48 hours for floors using Vetonit Tile Grout.

Tools should be cleaned with water before the mortar hardens. After the hardening its residuals can be removed mechanically only. 

Cleaning

Tools and equipment can be cleaned with water immediately after use. Hardened materials will require removal by mechanical means.
