Applications: Keraflex is suitable for interior and exterior bonding of ceramic tiles, porcelain, stone materials, and mosaics on floors and walls. It can also be used for spot bonding of insulating materials like expanded polystyrene and sound-deadening panels.
Application Procedure: The adhesive is applied using a notched trowel. For external tiling or heavy loads, back-buttering is recommended. Tiles should be installed with firm pressure, and adjustments can be made within 60 minutes of installation. The open time is up to 30 minutes under normal conditions.
