Surface Preparation:
All surfaces should be between 40° F(4°C)
and 104° F(40°C) and structurally sound,
clean and free of all dirt, oil, grease, loose
peeling paint, laitance, concrete sealers or
curing compounds.

Check the surface to be true to plumb. All
slabs must be plumb and true to within ¼”
(6mm) in 10 ft(3m). Rough or uneven concrete
surfaces should be made smooth with
Screed/Plaster material to provide a wood float (or better) finish.

Dry, dusty concrete slabs or masonry should
be dampened and excess water swept off.
Installation may be made on a damp surface.
New concrete slabs shall be damp cured and
28* days old before application.

*No minimum cure time for concrete slabs
when thin-set mortar is mixed with latex
additive.

Expansion joints shall be provided through
the tile work from all construction or
expansion joints in the substrate. Do not
cover expansion joints with thin set mortar.
Follow ANSI Spec ification AN-3.8
“Requirements for Expansion Joints”

MIXING :

Place clean, potable water into a clean mixing
bowl. Add ARROTILE SILVER POWDER into the
mixing bowl. Use approximately 5.5 – 6.0L of
water for 20 kg of powder. Mix by hand or with
a slow speed mixer to a smooth, trowelable
consistency. Allow adhesive to slake for
5 minutes. Adjust consistency if necessary.
Remix and apply with the proper sized
notched trowel.

Application

Apply adhesive to the substrate with the flat side of the trowel, pressing firmly to work into surface. Comb on additional adhesive with the notched side. Use the proper sized notched trowel to ensure full bedding of the tile. Spread as much adhesive as can be covered with tile in 10 minutes. Back butter large format tiles (> 12”x12”) to provide full bedding and firm support. Place tiles into wet, sticky adhesive and beat in using a beating block and rubber mallet to embed tile and adjust level. Check adhesive for complete coverage by periodically removinga tile and inspecting bedding adhesive transfer onto
back of tile.Use of Arrotile spacers is recommended to provide grout joints between tiles / stones. The joint width shall
be as per the recommendation of architect / engineer. Remove the spacers when the
adhesive is set firm.

If adhesive is skinned over (not sticky),
remove and replace with fresh adhesive.
