Use and properties:
CEKOL Q-6 EXTRA is a cementitious adhesive (C) with improved technical parameters (2), with reduced slip (T) and extended open time (E), C2TE. The product is recommended for tiling marble, granite and ceramic slabs, as well as glass components to mineral substrates. The product contains high-quality polymers, fibres and special aggregate CEKOL Q-6 EXTRA for better adhesion and superior flow resistance. For standard and heated surfaces. The product is a flexible, frost- and water resistant adhesive for indoor and outdoor use. The risk of tile discoloration is reduced by the use of white cement as the bonding agent. The product can be used for skimming and levelling surfaces.
Procedure:
Substrate preparation
The substrate should be clean, compact and free from grease. All residues of emulsion and oil paints and loose grains of sand should be removed with a spatula or a rough brush.
Priming
Highly absorbent substrates should be primed with a deep penetrating primer CEKOL DL-80.
Adhesive preparation
The product should be prepared by pouring 1 kg of powder into 0.25 – 0.27 l of water (5 – 5.4 l of water per 20 kg bag), and then mixing thoroughly with a slow-rotating mixer until a uniform consistency is obtained. Wait around 3 minutes and mix thoroughly again. Pot life: around 3 hours.
Application
Apply the adhesive to the prepared substrate with a notched trowel. When working on heated surfaces, switch the heating off before applying the tiles. Heating can be switched back on after at least 7 days. For outdoor use or for better tile adhesion, the CEKOL Q-6 EXTRA adhesive should be applied in a continuous layer on both the substrate and the underside of the tiles.
STORAGE
