TILELOC | Bonding Agent

 

COMPOSITION:

Tile-Loc is a Copolymer Latex Bonding & Waterproofing aid.

PROPERTIES & USES:

Tile-Loc has been designed specifically for use in the Building Industry as a water resistant additive and to assist bonding of Tiles to smooth surfaces such as off shutter concrete, existing ceramic tiles & vinyls.

FEATURES & ADVANTAGES:
• Improves non-structural bond of tiles to smooth concrete.
• Improves non-structural bond of floor screeds to smooth concrete.
• Waterproofing additive.
• No more hacking & chipping of smooth surfaces.
• Easy to use.
SURFACE PREPARATION:
Surfaces should be free of loose particles, crumbling or flaking material, grease, dust or polish. Wire brush the area if necessary and dampen prior to priming.
APPLICATION:
TILING WITH CEMENT BASED POWDER ADHESIVES

Apply a slurry coat - 2 parts cement and 1 part Tile-Loc (by volume)- to the prepared area and while the slurry coat is still wet continue to tile in the usual manner. Tile-Loc can be added to the adhesive mix to obtain a stronger bond. (10% of water content)

TILING WITH READY-MIX ADHESIVE

Apply Tile-Loc with a brush to the prepared surface, allows the Tile-Loc to become tacky then continue tiling in the usual manner.

FLOOR SCREEDS:
PREPARATION

In addition to the normal preparation it may be necessary to use a mechanical scabbler to remove all unsound material, or to etch the concrete with diluted Hydrochloric Acid followed by a thorough washing with clean water to remove all traces of acid. Thoroughly dampen floor prior to application of slurry coat.

APPLICATION

Apply a slurry coat - 2 parts cement and 1 part Tile-Loc (by volume) to the prepared area using a stiff broom and continue screeding in the normal manner (while the slurry coat is still wet).
