1- surface Processing :

• The joints must be clean, dry, and solid.
• Joints must be free of foreign substances such as dust, dirt, and cement residue... etc.
• The joints must be cleaned from the adhesive's residues before hardening.
• Hydrate the joints with clean water when using porous ceramic at high temperatures and having wind.

2- Application

• Mixing:

  Add AKRE GROUT 300 to the amount of clean water in the mixing bowl (30-35% water ratio) then mix using a low-speed mechanical mixer, quietly and for 2 minutes until we reach a homogeneous mixture, free of clusters, let the mixture rest for 2 minutes, then re-mix for (30-60 sec), and the mixture is ready to apply. It is preferable to use AKRE GROUT 300 modified by AKRE BOND (SBR) at a ratio (1 liter AKRE BOND (SBR) per 10 kg AKRE GROUT 300 and an appropriate amount of water)

• Spreading :

  AKRE GROUT 300 to fill the joints using a suitable trowel and make sure the joints are completely filled and then remove the residue of the mortar from the tile surface. The mortar loses part of its water after interacting with the surface and its shape becomes dimmer, usually, after 10-20 minutes we clean the surface of the mortar using a wet sponge and a circular motion, this period may be shorter when working under direct sunlight or wind because the mortar dries out faster. In case of cleaning before this time or the sponge is very wet, we will notice a change in color. The sponge should be cleaned frequently and the water used should always be clean so that the surface of the tiles is not dumped. The mortar should be used within one hour. Each 1 kg covers 28 longitudinal meters of joints with 3 mm depth and 4 mm width, and this quantity varies according to application conditions and surface properties.

Post-application recommendation:

• Disposal of the product if the period of use exceeds.
• If applied in extremely hot areas, drought and severe winds are recommended to hydrate the joints after several hours of application to ensure an excellent final result.

Cleaning: :

• Clean equipment and hands with direct water
• Clean the surface of the stuck material after installation with a wet cloth.

Storage:

• Storage in relatively dry warehouses away from humidity and direct sunlight.
• No more than 10 bags should be placed on top of each other during storage.
• Shelf life 12 months in appropriate conditions.

Packaging:

• Multi-ply paper bag 20 kg.
