Laying ceramic tiles to wall and floor surfaces
Fixing of ceramic tiles, clinker brick, glass and other mosaics onto floor and wall surfaces
With regard to wall tile linings, fixing technology and selection of an adhesive depend on the type of the substrate, and the implementation of floor linings is different in case of dry and wet rooms and depends on envisaged floor exposure.Back
Fixing of ceramics onto standard – fine plastered wall surfaces
Use the AKRINOL adhesive to fix ceramic tiles, clinker brick, and mosaics onto standard – fine plastered wall surfaces.
In most cases, the substrate is only moistened prior to fixing, but if it is highly or irregularly absorbent, coat it with diluted ACRYL EMULSION (ACRYL EMULSION : water = 1 : 1). Then, apply adhesive mortar with a suitably notched trowel. Lay the tiles close together or insert appropriately thick plastic distancing pieces into joints. Soak very absorbing tiles in water prior to fixing. Subsequently, fill joints between tiles with a joint filler in selected colour shade (no sooner than 24 hours after fixing) and dilatation joints with a suitable permanently elastic crack filler.
to fix a m2 of the lining, you will need ~2 to 3 kilos of adhesive AKRINOL, and ~100 g of AKRIL EMULSION in case you need to coat the substrate prior to applying the adhesive.

Fixing of ceramics onto demanding wall surfaces (gypsum-cardboard boards, fibre-cement boards, and particle boards), fixing of ceramics onto ceramics
a)
Apply elastic adhesive AKRINOL ELASTIK to fix ceramic tiles, clinker brick and mosaics onto problematic wall substrates (gypsum-cardboard boards, fibre-cement boards and particle boards).
Coat the substrate with VEZAKRIL prior to fixing. After 24 hours, when the primer is completely dry, spread adhesive compound over it with a suitable notched trowel. Lay the tiles close together or insert appropriately thick plastic distancing pieces into joints. Soak very absorbing tiles in water prior to fixing. Subsequently (no sooner than 24 hours after fixing), fill the joints between tiles with joint filler in a selected colour shade, and fill dilatation joints with suitable permanently elastic crack filler.
b)
New ceramics can be easily fixed also to old wall ceramic linings if these substrates are well adhered and if they are appropriately treated prior to fixing. In this case as well, apply elastic adhesive AKRINOL ELASTIK.
Firstly, clean old ceramic lining well (primarily, it has to be degreased) and damage its surface as much as possible. Then, coat it with VEZAKRIL. After 24 hours, when the primer is completely dry, spread adhesive compound over it using a suitable notched trowel. Lay the tiles close together or insert appropriately thick plastic distancing pieces into joints. Soak very absorbing tiles in water prior to fixing. Subsequently (no sooner than 24 hours after fixing), fill the joints between tiles with joint filler in a selected colour shade and dilatation joints with suitable permanently elastic crack filler.
in both cases you will need the following to fix a m2 of a lining ~300 ml of VEZAKRIL and ~2 to 3 kilos of adhesive AKRINOL ELASTIK

FLOOR IN "WET ROOMS” (BATHROOMS, SHOWER ROOMS, TOILETS, LAUNDRIES, and similar)
a)
Prior to fixing of tile lining, apply elastic dampf proofing coat – HIDROZOL ELASTIK onto a cement plaster/render and in case of fixing floor ceramic tiles, clinker brick and mosaics apply elastic adhesive AKRINOL ELASTIK.
Moisten the substrate prior to application of dampf proofing coat. Dampf proofing
compound is applied in two, or, even better, in three coats – the first one using a brush, and the other two using a steel smoothing trowel.
In the second coat, micro-reinforce passages from the horizontal into the vertical and all tubular breaches [with special elastic bands and collars, and micro-reinforce the second coat with a vinyl-covered glass fibre mesh if larger floor surfaces and problematic substrates are concerned.
Ceramics can be fixed 3 to 5 days after the last coat of the dampf proofing
compound has been applied. Apply adhesive using a suitably notched trowel. Lay the tiles close together or insert appropriately thick plastic distancing pieces into joints. Soak very absorbing tiles in water prior to fixing. Subsequently (no sooner than 24 hours after fixing), fill the joints between tiles with a joint filler in a selected colour shade and dilatation joints with a suitable permanently elastic crack filler.
to process a m2 of floor near tiles, you will need ~2.5 to 4.5 kilos of HIDROZOL ELASTIK (with a suitable quantity of elastic bands and collars; if the dampf proofing coat is micro-reinforced, you will also need ~1.1 m2 of vinyl-covered glass-fibre mesh) and ~2 to 3 kilos of adhesive AKRINOL ELASTIK
b)
Prior to applying new ceramics directly onto old floor ceramic linings (if they are well adhered and properly treated prior to fixing) apply elastic dampf proofing

Fixing of floor ceramics in catering establishments, commercial premises, small-trade plants and other business premises
Only elastic adhesives are suitable to fix floor ceramic tiles, clinker bricks and mosaics onto traditionally trowelled cement plaster/render in catering establishments, commercial premises, small-trade plants and other premises, where beneficial load exceeds 300 kg/m2, but is not higher than 600 kg/m2.
