ZENTRIVAL PL Waterproof Tile Adhesive

Zentrival PL

Zentrival PL is a present generation tile adhesive specially formulated for fixing of ceramic, other tiles and insulation boards by thin bed method and spot bonding method. The average bed thickness can be as low as 1 mm and it replaces the conventional bed thickness of pat mortar of 15 to 20 mm.

Zentrival PL should be added to water (not reverse) to obtain paste like consistency. This mixture should be allowed to stand for about 10 minutes to begin the reaction before applying the same by means of normal trowels. The surface should then be combed with notched trowels to achieve savings in the material. The tiles can then be placed in position by slight twisting motion. The insulating boards like polyurethane, polystyrene boards etc. should be spot bonded. Tiles need not be pre wetted & no batting of tiles is required thereby avoiding the breakage.

No pre roughening of plaster is necessary as tile adhesive adheres even to smooth surfaces and there is no wastage. Economy is derived from the fact that output of tile layer is 2 to 3 times of that in the conventional tile fixing. The greatest advantage is higher bond strength and the surface is waterproof. The joints between the tiles can be grouted by using Zentrival FM, premixed, waterproof grout supplied in white colour and can be tinted to any matching shade by using universal stainers.
