JOINT FILLER FLEX ( 1 – 6 mm. ) jo-fil flex

DEFINITION
Cement based, includes special chemical additives, water repellant; in various colours, used for where instant heat changes. Flexible with a high performance filler for joints from 1 to 6mm.
APPLICATION AREA
Easily used indoors and outdoors, on both horizontal and vertical surfaces: ceramic, marble, floor tiles e.g. filling the joints of coating equipment.
PREPARATION
Application surface should be free of dirt, dust, mortar waste , materials and liquids that could prevent fixing between the edges of joints. Before application, joints should be dampened.
APPLICATION
• For the preparation of the dry mortar, put 8 litres of water into the container and then slowly add the 20 kg of cement based material. While adding the material, stir the mixture with a low speed blender in order to get a lump free, homogeneous consistency.
• The mixture is left for 5 minutes to mature, then is blended for a further 2 minutes.
• The prepared mixture should be pressed into the joints by cross application with a rubber trowel.
• Excess material should be wiped off with a soft spatula or wet sponge. Depending on the ambient temprature, the prepared mixture should be left for 30-45 minutes and then the surface should be cleaned again with a wet sponge.
• If the surface humidifies one day later , the grouting will have more endurance.
