5. For fixing glazed, ceramic tiles to walls & floor areas.
DESCRIPTION
Perma Liquid Tile Adhesive is a complex polymer based white liquid that is added to the bedding mortars used for fixing ceramic tiles,granite slabs or marble slabs on horizontal surfaces. Liquid Tile Adhesive dramatically enhances the adhesive,tensile and waterproofing properties in the mortars so that it prevents weeping joints in the floors and skirting. The product can be added to neat cement as well, to improve the properties of the paste.
GUIDE TO APPLICATIONS
A. For fixing ceramic tiles, granite slabs, marble slabs to the concrete floors
Dry mix 15kgs of cement (use white cement for fixing marble) with 50 kgs of fine sand.Add two Ltrs of LTA and water to get the desired consistency. Lay the mortar on the floor and spread it evenly. Press the ceramic tiles, granite or marble to position.

Mix Cement 

 15 kgs

Fine Sand 50 kgs

1:2 by volume 

Perma LTA                 

 2 Ltrs

Water                         

 2 to 3 Ltrs

This mortar is sufficient to fix 37 sq.ft of tiles with a 5 mm thick bed.

B. For fixing ceramic tiles, granite or marble on existing mosaic floor :
Dry mix 15kgs cement (use white cement for fixing marble) with 15 kgs of fine sand passing 300 micron sieve or use quartz or silica powder. Add two litres of LTA and water to desired consistency. Prime the back of the tile and the mosaic floor just before laying of the mortar with LTA mixed in the proportion of 1:1 by volume. Lay the smooth consistency mortar on the primed tile or slab to position. Please note that the brush applied primer has a tendency to dry quickly. Hence prime the tile, granite or marble just before fixing.
