• Mix thoroughly until a trowelable consistency is attained.
• Let stand for about 10 – 15 minutes, and then re-mix again.
APPLICATION
• Using a special notched trowel (6mm x 6mm) spread over 1-2 square meter area at a time only.
• Lay down tiles and adjust accordingly. Use tile spacers to ensure the correct spacing of the tiles.
