Stated consumption data are for general guidance. Actual consumption depends on the nature of substrate, method of application, and wastages.
The original sealed bag of Vetoset CA547 has a shelf life of 12 months, provided it is stored clear of ground in a dry, shaded place below 35ºC.
Mixing
For the preparation of mortar adhesive, pour into a container 5.4 - 6.4 liters of water for each 20Kg bag of Vetoset CA547. Add the powder to the water and mix with a low-speed electric drill fitted with a suitable paddle for 3-4 minutes until achieving a uniform, lump-free consistency. Allow the mixed material to stand for about 10 minutes and briefly remix without adding extra water.
Blend Vetoset CA547 manually for small quantities and maintain the correct amount of powder to water.
If required, add 0.5 Ltr of Saveto Bond 2 to the mixing water, followed by powder's addition. Use the mixed material within 2 hours.
Do not add water to the mixture once the mortar adhesive starts to harden.
Application
Spread the mixed Vetoset CA547 mortar adhesive and firmly press it onto the surface that will be tiled; work with a notched trowel. Spread the mortar adhesive to an area that can be tiled within 10 -15 minutes.
Place the tiles onto the fresh adhesive mortar and firmly press them with a slight twist; immediately knock them into the desired position. Adjust the position of the tiles, if required, within its adjustability time of 10-15 minutes after installation.
Mortar adhesive must not rise between the tile joints higher than halfway the thickness of the tiles.
Allow the installed tiles to remain undisturbed for at least 48 hours.
It is recommended to use Vetofill CG552 for filling the joint gaps after 2 days of tile installation.
Cleaning
Clean tools and equipment with water immediately after use. Remove the hardened material using mechanical means.
The surface should be sound, clean, free from loose material, grease, laitance, dirt, curing compound, etc.
Wet all surfaces with clean water before the application of Vetoset CA547. The surface should appear damp with no water pooling.
Vetoset CA547 is highly alkaline; therefore, avoid direct contact with eyes or skin. It is recommended to use protective gloves and goggles during application. Any skin contact should be washed with soap & water. In case of eye irritation, immediately wash with a copious amount of clean cold water. Seek medical advice.
Vetoset CA547 is non-flammable.
