Webercol Plus | Tile Glue

PRODUCT:

Webercol plus is a ready mix cement-based high performance polymer “latex” modified tile adhesive for internal and external use. col plus has a strong bonding effect, used for adhering large tiles, or in cases of permanent exposure to high degrees of humidity. It can be used in a damp environment, and is water resistant. col plus is non-sagging and classified "T" (slip resistant) according to EN 12004 for tile adhesives (UAE, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, KSA, Oman).

The addition of the new Low Dust feature allows a dust reduction by 90% during pouring and mixing of the product!* The Low Dust effect will lead to:

• Cleaner working sites • Easier and quicker renovation.

SCOPE OF USE:

col plus is used for fixing a wide range of tiles (ceramic, sandstone, granite, marble, porcelain, etc.) on the following substrates: • Concrete • Lightweight blocks • Stone walls (cleaned and prepared) • Glazed tiles (internal use) • Cementitious plaster and renders • Gypsum Board (primer is required) • Fixing of Polystyrene board to concrete or cementitious substrate. Over difficult substrates such as cement board, gypsum, wood..., primer is required, consult company for advice. Webercol plus can be used for tiling in: • Private swimming-pools (≤80m3 ) • Bathrooms • Stairs • Heated floors • Facades • Rooms • Parking

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:

SURFACE PREPARATION:

Surface must be clean and free from greasy matters or dust. Substrate should have been sufficiently cured in a way that any shrinkage has already occurred. Moisten slightly the substrate if it is dry at the time of application, never moisten the tiles. PRODUCT PREPARATION Mix col plus in the proportion of 5 to 6 liters (4 to 4.8 L. for 20 kg) of clean cool water per 25 kg bag. An electric mixer with low rotation speed (< 300 rpm) can be used. Mix until a uniform lump free paste is obtained. Let the paste rest for a few minutes before starting the application.

PRODUCT APPLICATION:

Apply col plus evenly on the substrate. Use a notched trowel to have a uniform thickness of 2 to 3 mm minimum. Apply the tiles on the substrate and press them firmly, while making sure that the paste does not slip from the tile sides. col plus can also be applied on the back of tiles to ensure full adhesion with all the surface. In case exceptional performance is required, each bag of 25 kg col plus should be mixed with 1 liter ad 225 MB (styrene butadiene latex bonding agent) + 4.75 liters clean water.

CLEANING:

Clean the tools with water after use. Cured materials can only be removed mechanically.

PRECAUTIONS:

Apply col plus on the substrate by areas of around 1 m² each, which can be tiled within a maximum of 25 minutes from application time at 20°C. After that time, an outer skin may form thus preventing the tile from adhering properly to col plus. Adjustments to the tiles should only be made during col plus open time. It is recommended to leave a minimum width of 2 mm around the tiles. Grouting the tile joints should only be done at least 24 hours after tiling, using joint perfect or joint (Carrojoint).

STORAGE:

12 months after manufacturing date in original and non-open packaging, under cover, in dry condition, away from humidity, protected from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
