Warnings & Recommendations
Do not apply this product when frost is forecasted
Do not apply at temperatures below 5C° or above 45C°.
Do not apply in areas where there is a risk of standing water
In extreme weather conditions (wind of high temperatures), the product will dry more quickly than usual. This will result in a shorter open time.
In high temperatures windy conditions or if the application surface is very absorbent it is advisable to moisten the surface and wait for the film of water to disappear before applying the product.
Check periodically that a surface film has not formed on the adhesive paste once it has been spread onto the surface. If a film has formed remove the product and apply a fresh coat.
Check that paste is sticky enough by periodically lifting one of the tiles already in place to ensure that it is well stuck down.
