PERFORMANCE

  • Density of dry mortar: 0.9 - 1.1
  • Compressive strength: 28 N/mm2 (MPa)
  • Note: These test results are from laboratory test.  They might be slightly different from on-site results because of the differences in applications and conditions.  

APPLICATION PROPERTY

  • Pot life: 30 minutes
  • Setting time: 12 hours
  • Waiting time before traffic: 24 hours
  • Recommended joint width: 1 to 6 mm
  • Application temperature: + 5°C to + 35°C  

SUBSTRATE PREPARATION

  • The joints should be clean and dry before grouting.
  • Clean and remove any particles or contaminations remaining in the joints in order to ensure a good grout adhesion and the color uniformity.  

GROUT PREPARATION

  • Put clean water in a bucket (the water should be at room temperature, not warm or hot).
  • Gradually add weber.color classic in the water and mix at the same time until homogeneous lump-free paste is obtained.  The mixing proportion is;    
    • 1:3        by weight (water : grout)    
    • 1:2.5     by volume (water : grout)
  • After proper mix, leave the product for 3 - 4 minutes before using in order to have the complete chemical reaction.
    • The mixture of weber.color classic should be used within 30 minutes and kept away from heat & sunlight.  

APPLICATION

  • For wall: Use weber rubber trowel or an appropriate tool to diagonally fill tile joints.    
  • For floor: Apply the mixed grout onto the area of 1 m2, and then use the rubber trowel to diagonally fill the joints.
  • Wipe off the excess grouts with damp sponge before the grout sets.
  • Clean tile surfaces with clean cloth after 2 hours.
  • Wait for 24 hours before traffic to ensure the good bonding of grout.  

RECOMMENDATION FOR GROUTING

  • Avoid using the grout on red-hot substrates or the substrates exposing to direct sunlight.
  • To protect water leakage into underneath tiles and to avoid tile movement when there is foot traffic, the joint width should be at least 1.5 mm for wall and at least 3 mm for floor.
  • In case of clay tiles or porous tiles, weber.klin tec should be used before grouting to protect tile surfaces from grout-color stains.
  • If grout is required to be more durable, weber.klin JCR is recommended to use to protect grout joints from fungus, dirt, soap stains, or cooking-oil stains.
