Bond It Super Grip Ready Mix Non Slip Wall Tile Adhesive Off White 15kg

Description:
A off‐white, ready mixed polymer based, thin‐bed tile adhesive. Conforms to EN 12004 Type D, Class 1T

Uses
SUPER-GRIP is suitable for fixing all types of ceramic wall tiles,
including mosaics and vitrified tiles in internal locations such as
bathrooms, kitchens and domestic shower areas (when used with
a waterproof grout).

Note: it is not suitable for use in swimming
pools or with porcelain or large format tiles.
SUPER-GRIP has excellent grip properties, which reduces or
eliminates the need for battens or spacers. SUPER-GRIP provides
the user with an easy to apply, general purpose adhesive with
spreading characteristics, which suit both the DIY and professional
user.

Preparation
The substrate must be clean, structurally sound and free from
dust, oil, grease and loose flaking coatings. The surface must also
be sufficiently flat not to require an adhesive thickness
of more than 3mm. Rough or uneven surfaces should be
levelled with a suitable filler or plaster and allowed to
dry prior to a 2-3mm application of SUPER-GRIP. Porous
surfaces should always be primed prior to application.
PVA is not recommended. Products such as Bond It
PRIMER & FLEXIBLE ADMIXTURE should be used.

Plaster: plaster must be dry and have enough time to
develop adequate strength to support the weight of the tiles (at
least 4 weeks). Tiles must only be fixed to a finish coat. Old or
decaying plaster must be replaced and dusty or friable plaster
must be coated with a bonding agent prior to application.
Gypsum finishing plaster should be at least 4-6 weeks old,
thoroughly dry and wiped clean of dust, efflorescence and loose
flaking material. Porous masonry surfaces must be primed with
Bond It PRIMER & FLEXIBLE ADMIXTURE. The maximum weight of
tiles and adhesive on to plaster is 20Kg per m2

Cement Render: must be sound and dry and at least 2 weeks old
before application.

Sheets and boards: All wood based surfaces should be dry,
sealed on all exposed faces and edges and primed using a suitable
primer. Timber boarding should be waterproof rated, 15mm thick
and be screw fixed at 150mm centres to provide a stable
background. All boards must be level, showing no edge
protrusions and be fixed in place with a 0.5 to 1mm gap to avoid
expansion stresses between the boards and around the wall
perimeters.

Painted Surfaces: check the adhesion of the paint to the
substrate, if loose the coating should be removed. Sound hard
gloss paints are usually satisfactory but the surface should be
scored to provide a key and reduce drying times. Emulsion paints,
limewash or similar coatings must be removed.

Application
SUPER-GRIP should be applied using a notched trowel (5mm x
5mm @ 10-25mm centres) to give a ribbed bed on the wall
surface, into which the the tiles are firmly bedded with a twist and
slide action to ensure full contact. Remove a tile occasionally to
check on the standard of bedding being achieved. When fixing
studded tiles use a trowel with larger and/or more closely spaced
notches butter the tiles with adhesive before placing them on the
combed bed. The position of the tiles can be adjusted up to 10
minutes after initial fixing. Do not trowel out an area of adhesive
greater than can be tiled over within a 15 minute period (about
1m2
). The final adhesive bed depth should be in the range of 2-
3mm and grout joints should be at least 2mm, unless self-spacing
tiles are used. Wipe any residue from tile face with a moist cloth
and rake out excess adhesive from within the grout joints.

The spotting or blobbing method should not be employed to fix
tiles. For tiles larger than 250 x 300mm, a cement based powder
tile adhesive, such as Bond It CTA FLEXIBLE, should
be used instead. When using a cement based
tile adhesive directly on to plaster or
plasterboard, it is necessary to use a suitable
primer and sealer, such as Bond It PRIMER &
FLEXIBLE ADMIXTURE or Bond It SBR
ADMIXTURE

Open Time
Open time of the exposed adhesive bed is
approx. 15 minutes, dependant on conditions. Do not apply more
adhesive than will be used during this period.

Drying Time
Final set will occur after 24-72 hours. However, drying times will
be extended on impervious surfaces or with large format tiles.
SUPER-GRIP should not be applied onto walls affected by
penetrating damp, or when room temperature is below 5oC.

Grouting
Grouting may proceed as soon as the tile bed is sufficiently firm, which depending on
conditions can be from 24 after fixing on porous surfaces, such as plaster, or up to 3 days
where tiles have been fixed to an impermeable surface, such as existing tiles or waterproof
boards.

Coverage
Depends on the surface texture and porosity, however, on a typical smooth plastered wall
SUPER-GRIP will cover at a rate of approx.2-3Kg/m2 .
