Step By Step
8 Simple steps to a perfect wet room
Step 1
|
First prime the floor surface using MixPrimer then
create the drainage slope using PlaneMix 20 Self-Levelling Compound.1:100
fall to the drain is usually adequate and may be increased to 2:100
for very high output power showers. Please Note: This tile adhesive can be used 2-10mm in thickness to achieve the required slope. For small sized bathrooms we recommend that Quickfix is used at the point of tiling to create a slope. For wooden floors please mix with Flexibinder. |
Step 2
 |
Apply two coats of Sealing Primer to all surfaces. The pink colour enables you to check coverage. |
Step 3
 |
Apply the Self-adhesive Seal Strip. This will reinforce vulnerable areas such as corners and where wall abuts floor. Any cracks/joints in building materials or pipe penetrations should also be reinforced. |
Step 4
  |
Apply the special Self-adhesive Drain Mat, ensuring that the mat covers the drains flange. |
Step 5
 |
Apply the 2K Sealing Membrane Tanking System. The 2K system, illustrated here, is applied in two coats by trowel and is smoothed over to a final thickness of 1mm. |
Step 6
 |
Allow 12 hours for the 2K Sealing Membrane Tanking System to dry before tile fixing.. |
Step 7
 |
For floors it is recommended that Quickfix Fast Setting Adhesive is used. For wooden floors please mix with Flexbinder Flexible Admixture. For walls use Universalfix Tile Adhesive or for wooden surfaces mix with Flexbinder Flexible Admixture. |
Step 8
 |
Grouts available: For joint widths up to 5mm Cerafill 5 M-Silicon sealant should be used around floor corners and sanitary ware. |
