DESCRIPTION
It is a cement-based, polymer reinforced decorative brick and stone adhesive mortar with high adhesion strength.
FIELDS OF USE
It is used for coating horizontal and vertical surfaces with paving materials such as decorative bricks and natural stones.
SURFACE PREPARATION
The application surface should be cleaned off dust, oil, paint, other chemicals and loose pieces. Uneven surfaces should be leveled using Forcechem® Repair Mortar. All mineral-based absorbing surfaces should be dampened before the application and kept damp. In cases where the absorbing capacity of the surface is high, the application should be performed after applying Forcechem® Acrylic Primer onto the surface.
APPLICATION
Pour 25-kg Forcechem® Decorative Brick and Stone Adhesive Mortar into 6 – 6,5 liters of clean water, and mix with a low-speed mixer until you obtain a homogenous mixture without lumps. Leave the mortar to mature for 5 minutes, and then mix again. Apply the mortar onto the decorative brick and stone by using a trowel, and adhere the brick and stone to the wall. Apply force on the decorative bricks and stones with a rubber hammer in order to ensure full contact with the application area. Pay attention to leaving the desired joint gaps among decorative bricks and stones. Wait for at least 48 hours before applying joint sealant.
LIMITS OF APPLICATION
Do not apply the product on wooden surfaces, metal surfaces and surfaces exposed to humidity.
Apply the product on gypsum boards, plaster or blocks after using Forcechem® Forceprimer AAA (Adherence Augmenter and Surface-forming Primer for Walls and Ceilings).
