Allow the mixed material to mature for about 10 minutes and remix briefly.
Important Note: Do not mix partial quantities unless an exact proportion based on volume can be achieved using proper tools.
If performance enhancement is required, add 0.5 liter of Vetobond PB434 to the mixing water followed by addition of powder.
Mixed material can be used within 4 hours.
Application
Spread the mixed mortar over the tiles joints and firmly pressed with rubbing pad covered with sponge rubber spatula Vetofill CG551 is spread diagonally across the joints ensuring that the grout is pressed firmly into the joints.
Excess filler that remains on tiles shall be removed with same tool. After initial setting of 20—30 minutes, depending upon the ambient temperature and humidity , clean the tiles and remove all excess material with a wet sponge.
