Advantages

FixoTile GEL is a high-performance, polymer-modified, cement-based white tile adhesive with zero vertical slip and extended open time. Its hybrid technology combines specifically modified inorganic additives with synthetic macromolecular spherical water-swellable copolymers and when it is mixed with water Gel mechanism activates. Contains natural hydraulic which improve the workability and extended open time. The ease of application helps the applicator to finish his project faster with minimal effort. It is classified as type C2TE tile adhesive according to EN 12004. Certified for its extremely low percentage of emissions (VOC) with EC1PLUS.

General Information

FixoTile GEL is suitable for fixing absorbent and nonabsorbent decorative tiles (e.g. granite, natural stone, glass tiles, porcellanato, klinker, ceramics, etc.) on floors or walls. Ideal for small & large size tiles, and for areas where, adhesion and moisture resistance are required as well as in application of special requirements such as underfloor heating. It can be FIELD OF APPLICATION applied on a variety of substrates such as: concrete, cement mortars, renders & masonry mortars, painted walls, dry construction (gypsum boards, cement boards, etc.), surfaces with existing and well anchored overlays of: tiles, marbles, mosaics. Indoor and outdoor usage.

How to Use

  • To ensure good adhesion, substrate should be clean, solid, without large unevenness (≤15mm), free of dust, oil, lime, tar and loose elements.
  • Any new cementitious substrates (e.g. concrete, cement mortars, plasters, etc.) are ensured to be sufficiently cured for a period of at least 28 days, depending conditions.
  • On absorbent surfaces, before application, soak with water, without forming stagnant water.
  • On very absorbent surfaces (e.g. gypsum boards, cement boards, aerated concrete, etc.) it is recommended to apply the micromolecular substrate stabilization primer Eco Dur Aqua by KRAFT Paints.
  • Apply the adhesive up to 20mm thickness on the substrate using a notched trowel of appropriate size. Then apply the tile with constant pressure to ensure good entire surface contact between adhesive & tile.
  • On large tiles (>900 cm2 ) it is recommended to apply the adhesive all over the back side of each tile (“back-buttering” method) in order to achieve full bonding. Before application, ensure that tile surface is free of dust, otherwise clean thoroughly with water.
  • In normal conditions of temperature and humidity, the open time is at least 30 minutes. Otherwise, this time can be significantly reduced in adverse conditions (e.g. strong sunlight, high temperatures, dry air currents).
  • In any case, it is recommended to check the surface of applied adhesive, before tile fixing, to make sure that no membrane («skin») has formed. Otherwise, renew the adhesive by running notched trowel over it. If the adhesive has already start to set, remove it and spread a new «fresh» adhesive layer. Under no circumstances should the surface of the applied adhesive be wetted with water
  • Stored on wooden pallets and in a dry environment with temperature above 5°C for 12 months from the production date.
