TILING 09 30 00 Setting / TDS-127
Application of Product
INSTALLATION TO CONFORM TO ANSI A108.4. Use a properly-sized
notch trowel to ensure proper coverage under tiles. Using flat side of
trowel, apply skim coat of adhesive with appropriate size trowel. Apply
additionaladhesivewithnotchsideoftrowelheldata45°angletothe
surface, combing in one direction. Press tile firmly into place in a
perpendicular motion across ridges, moving back and forth.
Perpendicular pressing flattens ridges and closes valleys allowing
maximum coverage. With some tile, back-buttering is advisable. Adjust
tile promptly and beat in with a beating block and rubber mallet.
Periodically pull up a tile and check the back to ensure complete
coverage with the adhesive. Do not apply more adhesive than can be
covered with tile in 30 minutes. If adhesive starts to skin over (not
sticky), retrowel before setting tile. Do not apply more adhesive than is
necessary to achieve a sufficient bond.
