The product’s pot life and hardening time is strongly
dependent on the ambient temperature.
The optimum application temperature is between +18 and
+25°C.Under these conditions, the product is soft, easily
workable and with a pot life of approximately 1 ~ 1.5 hour. It
is set to light foot traffic after 24 hours. The grout is ready
for use and resistant to chemicals after 5 days at a
temperature of +23°C.
The hardening time is lengthened by low temperatures and
shortened by high temperatures.
Do not add water or solvents to improve workability. In hot
weather, it is advisable to apply the product to the floor as
quickly as possible so as not to shorten the pot life even
further due to the heat of reaction in the container.
CLEANING AND FINISHING

The grouting must be cleaned and finished while the
product is still fresh and, in any case, in the shortest
possible time, taking care not to remove the grout from the
joints or leave stains on the surface of the tiles.
Manual method
First sprinkle clean water over the grouted surface.
