Preparation of the surfaces. Similar to ceramic adhesives, the applied adhesive requires some time to reach the required level of hardness. Before application of solution please take care of the ceramic surface to be used: it should be clean, and any existing contaminations should be removed.

Preparation of the mixture. The EPOKS 200 White product is a two-component joint filling mixture, so it has been packed in corresponding amounts. In case you plan to use only part of the package, the Component A (epoxide resin based adhesive) should be mixed with the hardening Component B in 100%(A)/4%(B) proportion. At the time of application both components should be mixed during at least 3 minutes using 400-600 RPM mixer until the mixture is entirely homogeneous).

Application. Fill the joints in a criss-cross manner with EPOKS 200 White joint filling mixture using plastic or rubber trowel or pneumatic applicator gun filled by means of suction, then strike off extra amounts. In case a joint has large depth make sure it has been filled entirely, as the applied solution can settle. Wait 15-30 minutes depending on the environmental and surface temperature, then clean the surfaces using suitable sponge soaked with hot water and detergent dissolved in it, to achieve required conditions. Frequently replace the contaminated sponge during the cleaning. Substances based on epoxide resin when used to fill the joints (pores) form layers similar to thin film on the ceramic surfaces. Thoroughly remove these layers. If let the moment pass, it will be very difficult to clean. The last thin layer should be removed from the ceramic surface in 4-10 hours after application, with the help of suitable sponge soaked with hot water and detergent dissolved in it. The final cleaning includes wiping the surface using 10% alcohol in water solution.

Recommendations. The EPOKS 200 White solution should be mixed using corresponding mixing unit. It should be thoroughly mixed by hands or using trowel. Period of use and hardening of the products containing solution of epoxide resins depends on the environmental temperature. The most effective operating temperature is +100C - +200C. The prepared EPOKS 200 White solution mixture in no case should be diluted with water or fresh solution. After use all hand tools and devices should be cleaned with warm water with addition of powdered detergent.

Amount of consumed joint filling mixture varies depending on dimensions of the facing tiles, width and depth of joints.

The product can be stored during 12 months packed in original sacks in dry and cold conditions, provided  freezing is avoided.
