Application areas:
- Grouting of ceramic tiles, glass tiles, non-moisture sensitive natural and concrete stones, mosaic made of glass, porcelain and ceramics.
- Internal and external wall and floor.
- For joint width from 2 – 15 mm.
- With water-resistant properties, flexible and with brilliant adhesion to tile flanks.
- Highly dirt repellent.
Description:
Powder based on cement, special fillers and additives. Due to its unique technology smooth grout lines with a high strength and perfect application properties.
When mixed with water it results a supple, paste-like mortar, which can be worked in easily into the grout line and can be easily cleaned. The surface of the grout line will stay smooth and crack free.
ARDEX G9S FLEX 2-15, after hardening, has water and dirt repellent properties, which are favourable in terms of visual and the condition of the grout line. The high deformability and the good bond to the edge are lead to a reduce risk of tension cracks in areas where high thermal loads are present.
Application:
Clear water is put into a clean mixing container and ARDEX G9S FLEX 2-15 grouting compound is mixed in to give a lump free creamy mortar.
Mixing ratio:
12,5kg ARDEX FS FLEX powder : approx. 2,4 litres of water.
At a temperature of + 20°C the mortar is workable for approx. 30 minutes. Higher temperatures shorten the working time higher temperatures lengthen it.
The mortar can easily be inserted into the joints by means of a rubber trowel or squeegee
Even deeper joints can be filled in one single operation without any collapsing. The moderate curing time permits efficient working on large areas.
After the final set the areas can be cleaned with a damp sponge, sponge float or float provided with ScotchBrite®. If exposed longer to the air, damp the area with water to ease the procedure. Remaining cement films can be cleaned that with a damp sponge.
If in doubt invest in trials.
ARDEX G9S FLEX 2-15 should be used at temperatures between +5°C and +30ºC.
Pay attention to the following:
Grouting material residue can collect in porous surfaces on onto matt glazes of tiles. Carrying out test grouting with such coverings is therefore indispensable.
If the grout lines are to be cleaned with acids the joints must be soaked with water beforehand.
Substrate moisture and differing absorbency in the tile flanks can cause colour differences in the joints.
For tiles prepared in a thick bed mortar, the mortar must be dry enough to get a homogeneous absorption capacity on the surface of the grout and largely avoid the colour tone variations.
Cementitious based grouting compounds are not resistant to acids. Acid cleaners like: citric acid, acetic acid and other acids cleaners can lead over a period of time to irreversible damage of the grout. If these cleaners are used the grout has to be wetted. We recommend to use soft cleaners with a neutral to light alkalinity.
In spas and health applications ARDEX epoxy grouts should be used (ARDEX WA).
If in doubt invest in trials.
