BOYTİM 201 FUGA
Description:
Cement based colored joint filler.
Areas of Use:
It is used for filling the joint gaps up to 6 mm of interior and exterior
coverings such as faience, ceramics, marble, artificial marble, tiles, etc.
on horizontal and vertical surfaces.
Product Advantages:
• Easy to apply
• It adapts easily to the applied surface.
• It has high adherence.
• It is resistant to abrasion.
• It provides smooth surface.
• It does not scratch glazed surfaces.
Application Information:
Application Temperature: (+ 5 ° C) – (+ 35 ° C)
Mixing Ratio: 6 – 7 lt water / 20 kg powder
Duration of use: 1 hour
Application Thickness: 1-6 mm
Time to Put Into Use: 24 hours
Consumption: 300-1500 gr/m² (It varies according to the tile size,
thickness and joint width.)
*These values are valid for 23°C of temperature and 50% relative
humidity. Times may vary depending on ambient conditions.
Surface Preparation:
-The application surface should be made clean from dust, dirt, oil, paint
residue, and similar foreign matters reducing adherence.
-The surface must be moistened before the application.
-The adhesive must be cured on the application surface.
Mixture Preparation:
20 kg of BOYTİM 201 FUGA is slowly added to 6 – 7 liters of water slowly.
It is stirred until a homogeneous mixture is obtained with a trowel or a
low-speed mixer, leaving no lumps. The homogeneously mixed mortar
is rested for 5 minutes and then stirred again to make it ready for
application.
The prepared mixture should be used within a maximum of 1 hour, mortar
that has started to harden and has expired should not be used.
Application:
The prepared mixture is spread on the surface and joint gaps are filled
with rubber trowel. In order to fill the joint well into the gaps, first parallel,
and then cross movements should be done. The excess material on the
surface should be stripped and cleaned. When the material starts to
harden, after 20-30 minutes, the surface should be cleaned with circular
movements with the help of a damp sponge. Wiping should not be done
prematurely or with a too much watery sponge. The sponge should be
cleaned frequently. When the material dries out from the joint so that it
does not drain, the surface should be wiped clean with a dry cloth.
-There should not be any delays to clean the excesses on the applied
surface.
-While cleaning is done, care should be taken not to drain the joints.
-Applications should not be carried out in temperatures below 5°C.
– Without taking protective measures, applications should not be made
on surfaces that are exposed to sun and wind, directly.
-Foreign materials should never be mixed into the mortar.
-After application, all used tools should be washed with plenty of water
before drying.
-After 24 hours, the application area can be opened for use.
Warnings:
Do not inhale the product directly, as it is cement-based. Avoid contact
with skin and eyes.
