Additional information

Technical Caracteristics

Product based on high resistance cement, selected aggregates, additives and synthetic resins, which give
excellent bonding, good workability and resistance to ageing.

Advantages and Uses

  • To be applied on interior and exterior walls and floors.
  • Suitable for all types of tiles & natural stones.
  • No need to wet tiles or substrates thanks to its high water-retaining capacity.
  • Long open time. Allows rectification.
  • Tile on Tile Application.
  • Reduced sliding. Excellent initial adherence.

Suitable Substrates

  • Conventional cement-based substrates.
  • Indoor and outdoor cladding and flooring of tiles and stones.
  • Substrates must be resistant, stable, sound and clean, free of dust, demolding agents, organic products, etc.
  • All substrates must have the appropriate flatness. Otherwise, smooth down up to 5 mm with the same product 48 hours prior to bonding.
  • For greater thickness, use traditional dry mortars or levelling paste.
  • In case of hot or windy weather conditions or when applying over absorbent substrates, it is advisable to wet the substrate and wait till the thin layer of water disappears.
  • Do not apply on clay or on paint.

Application Procedure

  • Add water and mix mechanically until it takes on an even and workable consistency.
  • Let the mixture stand for 5 minutes and remix.
  • Spread the mixed product on the substrate with a trowel to a maximum surface area of 2m².
  • Spread with a notched trowel to adjust thickness (see chart).
  • Lay the tiles/natural stones, press and make small rotation movements to ensure that the glue gets in total contact with both surfaces.
  • Observe construction joints (expansion, contraction, fraction, perimeter corner joints) and the joints between the cement slabs (minimum 2 mm).
  • Joints should be grouted 24 hours after if on vertical surfaces, and 48 hours after if on floorings. Use Roff Tile grouting range depending on the type of joint.

NOTE
For better results lay tiles as soon as possible after spreading.

Recommendations

  • Do not apply below 5ºC nor above 35ºC.
  • Do not apply when there is a risk of frost, rain, strong wind or direct sunlight.
  • Do not apply in areas where water may accumulate.
  • Under extreme weather conditions (gusty winds or high temperatures) drying may occur faster.
  • On interior floorings larger than 15 m², it is advisable to keep a free perimeter expansion joint between the floor and the wall or pillar, hidden by a baseboard.
  • For plywood, drywall, glass or metal substrate & artificial stone, use Roff Masterfix.
  • The swimming pool can be refilled after 7 days of applying the adhesive.
  • The watertightness of the swimming pool must be ensured by the filling to check for leaks.
