In this guide, we will introduce you to how to professionally apply the Luxture Tile Adhesive & Tile Grout for long-lasting, flawless walls and floors
Step-by-Step Instructions on Using Luxture Tile Adhesive
- Step 1: Preparing the Surface
Make sure the surface of the wall or floor is free of moisture and levels.
Remove all dust, grease and loose material.
Lightly moist rock hard surfaces just prior to applying adhesive.
- Step 2: Mixing the Adhesive
Put clean water in a mixing bucket.
While stirring, gradually add Luxture Tile Adhesive to the bucket.
You can use an electric mixer to ensure a smooth, lump free consistency.
Allow the mixture to set for 5 minutes then re-mix.
- Step 3: Applying the Adhesive
With a notched trowel, spread adhesive evenly on the surface.
Cover small areas (up to 1m² per loss) to avoid drying out before tiling.
A flat bed of adhesive makes for better adhesion with the tile.
Step Four: Set the Tiles
Gently push the tiles down into the adhesive.
Use spacers to insure consistent gaps.
Ensure the tiles are seated properly by tapping them down gently with a rubber mallet.
Step Five: Allow the Tiles to Set
Give the tiles at least 24 hours of setting time before grouting.
Be sure not to move into or walk on your newly tiled area while it is setting.
Step-By-Step Instruction for Applying Luxture Tile Grout
In a clean bucket or container, measure the recommended amount of Luxture Tile Grout to water.
Now mix your Luxture Tile Grout with water until it reaches a nice creamy paste.
- Step Two: Apply the Grout
Grab your rubber float and apply a diagonal application of the grout across the joints of the tiles. Be sure every gap is filled.
- Step Three: Clean the Surface
After about 15–20 minutes, take a damp sponge and wipe off any excess grout on the surface of the tile.
Rinse out the sponge often to avoid any haze from developing on the tiles.
- Step Four: Adding the Finishing Touch
After the product fully dries, take a dry cloth and buff the surface to shine it up.
If desired, if you have excess moisture, you can seal the joints as added protection against moisture.
