Prepare

Ensure that the adhesive has set and dried and that the tiles are firm. Adhesive should normally be left for at least 24 hours before grouting, unless using a rapid set adhesive, when it should normally be left for 2 – 3 hours. Longer may be required on sealed and impervious surfaces. For swimming pools, leave for at least 3 days before grouting.

Ensure the tiles and joints are clean, dry, and free from adhesive, grease or any other contamination. If necessary, seal natural stone and allow to dry.

If the grout is required to be completely impervious to water, or chemically resistant, use weberepox easy.

Mixing

We recommend that you use a low-speed mechanical mixer to mix weberjoint wall. The mix ratio is approximately 2.5 parts grout to 1 part water by volume (normal usage requires 1.5 litres per bag).

Add the powder gradually to clean water and mix to a smooth stiff paste. Allow to stand for 5 minutes and re-mix thoroughly.

Do not re-wet, over-water or use as a sloppy grout mix as this will cause weakness and discolouration.

Apply

Using a squeegee or a rubber float, apply the grout to a small area at a time. Completely fill the joints leaving no voids. Excess grout should be removed immediately using a rubber float held at 90° to the tiles. This should be moved diagonally across the tiles to prevent removal of grout within the joints

When the grout has started to dry (after 5-10 minutes, less at temperatures above 20°C) the tiles should be cleaned with a damp emulsifying pad. Do not use excessive water. The pad should be used in a circular motion to loosen the grout residue. The tiles should now be wiped with a clean, damp sponge until all residue is removed. For best results lightly run a clean damp sponge along the joints to finish them. When dry, polish the tiles with a clean and dry cloth.

Ensure you immediately wash all tools and equipment in water after use.

Do not use at temperatures below 5°C.
