TECHNICAL VALUES

APPLICATION

SURFACE PREPARATION

• The surface shall always be free of form oil, dust, paint and materials that reduce adherence.
• Repair of the cracks and holes shall be made using appropriate Entegre Repair Mortars before application.
• Application surface shall be dampened with water, if required.
• PRIMEL 100® shall be applied before application on surfaces that are not resistant to moisture such as plasterboard, cardboard, gypsum plasters etc. and PRIMEL 600® BETOKONTAK shall be applied for applications of ceramics over ceramics, and the fixing operation is started when drying is complete (after approx. 24 hours).

PREPARATION of the MORTAR

• Water shall be put to the mixing vessel first, then KAROFIX® SUPER FLEX shall be added (5.75-6.25 l water/25 kg bag) and it shall be stirred until the lumps are removed.
• Stop for 5 minutes, and stir again to achieve a homogeneous mixture.
• The mortar prepared shall be applied up to a thickness of 8 mm, it shall be combed and ceramic shall be fixed.
• For a good adhesion, application shall be performed by applying force on the surface with a rubber hammer.
• Double sided fixing shall be used for coatings greater than 3,600 cm².

RECOMMENDATION

• No other materials (lime, cement, gypsum, etc.) shall be added to the prepared mortar.
• Mortar shall not be used again by mixing with water or dry mortar if its application time has expired.
• You shall wait at least 24 hours for joint application.
• May be used for coatings with water absorption of ≤0.5 and > 0.5 (ceramic, granite and porcelain ceramic, marble, etc.).
• Coating areas specified below are suitable for an ideal application:
  • On interior walls and interior/exterior floors: Coating area ≤3600 cm²
  • On exterior walls: Coating area ≤1200 cm² (12m height)
  • On exterior walls: Coating area ≤2000 cm² (8m height)
  • On exterior walls: Coating area ≤3600 cm² (4m height)
• KAROFIX® SUPER FLEX White is recommended for light coloured applications.
• We recommend that the application shall be performed between +5°C and +35°C.
• For an ideal application, coating material shall be fixed to the mortar applied on the surface within 35 minutes.
• For floor heating systems that are currently hot, system shall be turned off 48 hours before the application and it shall be ensured that the system is cooled.
• We recommend you to take additional mechanical precautions for heights over 8m.
• It shall not be applied on frozen surfaces.
• Do not apply under direct sunlight.
• Do not go beyond the application field and the rules.
• Do not inhale it directly. Wash your eyes with plenty of water in case of contact with eyes, seek medical attention if required.
