Quality and Standards

BAL Green Screed Adhesive exceeds BS EN 12004 C1S1

Instructions for use

• Ensure surfaces to be tiled are flat, clean, dry, sound and free from contamination
• Mix the product with clean cold water; 3.5 parts powder to 1 part water
  (Mix until smooth, lump-free consistency achieved)
• Using a trowel, apply the adhesive to the floor surface (max. 1m2 at a time)
• Comb to required bed thickness (between 2-6mm) ensuring ribs all run in one direction
  (Note. if fixing large/heavily-patterned tiles, apply additional adhesive to tile reverse)
• Fix tiles before adhesive forms skin (typically 20 minutes at 20°C). If skin has formed, remove adhesive and apply fresh layer
• Press tile firmly into the ribs of the adhesive and into position, with slight twisting/sliding action to ensure optimum adhesive contact (tiles can be adjusted for up to 20 minutes after initial positioning)
• Ensure you have left adequate joint spaces between tiles for grouting
• Clean off surplus adhesive from tile face and between tile joints

Recommendations

BAL Green Screed Adhesive is not suitable for use with limestone, travertine and some granite, due to staining; in this case use Ardex X7 Rapid W (White), BAL Rapidset Flexible White, BAL Single Part Flexible White or BAL Super Cover Rapid Flex White.
