In recent years, more and more decoration projects choose to use tile adhesive for tile paving. At the same time, with the increase in the use rate of vitrified tiles, ceramic tile adhesive has also been widely used. However, we have also learned that some owners do not perform at their best after using adhesives and tile adhesives. Today, Master Huaxin summarized the five misunderstandings of the use of ceramic tile adhesive and reminded everyone to pay attention.
Myth 1: Add "material" to the tile adhesive
When using ceramic tile adhesive, it must not be diluted with water or mixed with any other agents except for the distribution material. Because this will completely change the proportion of each component in the tile adhesive, the quality can not be guaranteed, the paste effect will be greatly reduced, and it is easy to produce hollow drum peeling and other phenomena.
Myth 2:Adhesive is used on the cement base.
Tile adhesive mainly plays the role of interface agent between ceramic tile and cement base, which only needs to be applied to the back of the tile, and does not need to be painted on the cement base. If adhesive is also used on the cement base, it may be peeled off due to too much load.
Myth 3:The tiles are placed too densely.
Due to the limited construction space, some masters will stack the tiles directly or close to the corner of the wall. After the specified drying time, it was found that the tile adhesive was not fully dried, so it was considered a product quality problem. The premise of getting the adhesive to dry as quickly as possible is to keep the air circulating.
Myth 4:The tile adhesive has been left for too long.
In the process of drying, the adhesive film will gradually mature, and the performance will reach the best after it is completely dry and solidified. Although the drying time is too long will not affect the bonding effect of the tile, the construction site is dusty, and the tiles painted with adhesive are easy to be polluted, which will affect the effect. Therefore, it is not recommended to leave it to air for too long.
Myth 5:Impurities on the back of the tile are not treated.
Before applying the adhesive backing, be sure to clean all kinds of dirt on the back of the tile, such as oil, floating ash, release agent, etc. This layer of material makes the adhesive of the tile unable to penetrate into the film, and eventually leads to the failure of the adhesive force and the hollowing of the brick.
