Construction Techniques
Preparation and tools: Check the back of ceramic tiles, and clean any release agents and impurities. The application tools mainly include mechanical agitator, mixing barrel, measuring cup, notched trowel, putty knife, rubber hammer, horizontal ruler, tape measure, ink box or laser level, ceramic tile cutter, sponge, cross rubber particles, etc.
Substrate treatment:The substrate must be flat and true, clean, and free of oil, grease, wax stains, concrete curing agent or any loose materials. The flatness deviation of the substrate should be less than 3mm/2m.
Preparation of the stone adhesive:Volume of water is given in Certificate. Add water to the mixing bucket, and then slowly add the powders while mixing with mechanical agitator until a homogeneous paste without lumps is obtained. Wait 3 to 5 minutes prior to mixing again for 15-30 seconds. Finally, it is ready for use. The mixed adhesive should be used up in 2 hours.
Stone paving:Apply forcefully a thin layer of the stone adhesive on the surface of substrate with spatula to improve adhesion. And then apply a thick layer, and process the adhesive layer with notched trowel. Make sure that each coating area is not more than 1 square meter. Apply forcefully a thin layer of adhesive on the back of stone, and then press the stone on the processed adhesive layer before drying. Under unfavorable weather condition (such as high temperature and wind) or for high water-absorbing substrate, stone paving should be done as soon as possible. Before tiles paving, touch the adhesive layer with your fingers to check whether it is dried. If it is not dried yet, tiles paving can be conducted. Otherwise, adhesive layer should be applied again. The choice of trowel should be governed by the depth of the grooves or ridges on the back of each tile and the evenness of the substrate.
