Preparation
It is essential that adequate preparation is carried
out prior to the application of SpECtite Tile Grout.
Tiles must be firmly fixed in place and perfectly
clean prior to the application of SpECtite Tile
Grout. The gap between tiles should be approx.
2-8mm, but should not exceed 8mm.
Mixing
SpECtite Tile Grout is supplied as a one
component blend of silica sands, portland
cements and organic polymers.
Place around 8 litres of
water in a mixing pail with
capacity of around 25
litres and slowly add the
SpECtite Tile Grout
whilst mixing using a slow
speed electric drill, fitted with a SpECbuild Mixing
Paddle. Always add powder to water and mix for
around 5 minutes to achieve a lump-free paste.
Leave the material to stand for 10 – 15 minutes prior
to application.
Application
Apply SpECtite Tile Gout using a small sponge
or cloth, ensuring that the product is thoroughly
worked into the joints and edges.
Be careful to remove surplus material with a
dry cloth and profile the joint either by the use
of a jointing tool or the tip a gloved finger.
Once the grout has dried, use a wet sponge to carry
out the final tile cleaning.
It is essential to clean tiles, which have a surface
profile, prior to the grout hardening.
SpECtite Tile Grout is supplied in 25kg bags and a
typical usage rate is around 0.20 – 0.30 kg/m²,
although this is very dependent on spacing and type
of tiles.
