Mixing Instructions
Pour 1 part of QUICSEAL 604 TileMix (Type II) into a clean container and slowly add 4 parts QUICSEAL 602 Thin-Set Powder by weight and stir with a low speed mechanical mixer and until a homogeneous and lump free paste is obtained. Leave to rest for 5 minutes and re-stir before use.
Application
To achieve good adhesion, firstly apply a thin coat of QUICSEAL 604 + QUICSEAL 602 firmly onto the substrate using the straight edge of the trowel followed immediately with the appropriate amount of adhesive with the notch side to achieve the required thickness. The correct notched trowel size to use will depend on the type and size of the tiles.
For large sized tiles and tiles with lugs and grooves, apply a coat of QUICSEAL 604 + QUICSEAL 602 to the back of the tiles to ensure sufficient coverage when laid.
Lay the tiles onto the adhesive and ensure that a firm pressure is applied to achieve good contact with the adhesive.
Unfavourable climatic conditions such as strong sunlight, wind and high temperature, etc. and very porous substrates may reduce the open time of the adhesive.
Hence, careful checks have to be made to ensure that skinning does not occur on the surface of the adhesive before laying the tiles. If a skinning has occurred, rework the adhesive before laying the tiles.
The tiles must be adjusted within 30 minutes after laying and must be protected from rain or strong sun for at least 24 hours.
Tile joints can be grouted usually 6 to 8 hours after laying the tiles
Coverage
Approximate 1.6kg per m2 per 1mm thick
The coverage is determined by the condition of the substrate.
