no, it is not suitable for waterproofing it is water resistant

It is suitable for ceramic, vitrified, and various tiles on internal floors and walls.

It complies with IS 15477:2019 Type – 1’T’ and EN 12004 C1 T quality standards.

Ensure the existing tiles are crack-free and clean. Sandpaper the surface to create roughness, apply a thin layer of thin-set mortar, and let it dry for 24 hours before placing new tiles.

• To use Magicrete Standard Tile Adhesive, follow these steps:
• Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or any loose particles.
• Mixing: Mix the adhesive powder with clean water in the ratio specified on the packaging. Stir the mixture until a uniform, lump-free paste is obtained. Let it sit for 5 minutes, then stir again.
• Application: Use a notched trowel to spread the adhesive evenly on the surface. Hold the trowel at a 45-degree angle to create uniform grooves.
• Tile Placement: Press the tiles firmly into the adhesive, sliding them slightly to ensure proper adhesion. Use spacers to maintain consistent gaps between tiles.
• Adjustments: Make any necessary adjustments within the adhesive's open time, usually 10-15 minutes.
• Curing: Allow the adhesive to cure for at least 24 hours before grouting or exposing the tiles to water or heavy traffic.

.

• Always mix the adhesive in small batches to prevent it from drying out before use.
• Use the correct size notched trowel for the size of the tiles being installed.
• Apply the adhesive to a small area at a time to ensure it does not skin over before tile placement.
• Regularly check for full coverage on the back of the tiles by lifting a tile occasionally during installation.
• Ensure tiles are evenly pressed and aligned to avoid lippage (uneven surfaces).

You should wait at least 24 hours before grouting to allow the adhesive to cure properly. This ensures the tiles are firmly set and reduces the risk of dislodging them during the grouting process.

Yes, Magicrete Standard Tile Adhesive is versatile and can be used for both wall and floor tile installations. It provides strong adhesion and is suitable for a variety of tile types and surfaces.

• Incorrect Mixing: Not following the recommended water-to-adhesive ratio can lead to weak bonding.

• Poor Surface Preparation: Failing to clean and prime the substrate can result in poor adhesion.

• Applying Too Much Adhesive: This can cause the adhesive to ooze out between tiles, leading to an uneven surface.

• Rushing the Process: Not allowing sufficient curing time before grouting or exposing the tiles to traffic can compromise the installation.

• Not Checking Coverage: Not ensuring full adhesive coverage on the tile backs can lead to hollow spots and weak adhesion.

• Notched trowel (appropriate size for tile size)

• Mixing bucket and mixing paddle

• Tile spacers

• Rubber mallet

• Tile cutter or wet saw

• Level and straightedge

• Sponge and clean water for cleaning excess adhesive

• Ensure the substrate is properly prepared and primed if necessary.

• Mix the adhesive in small, manageable batches.

• Apply the adhesive using a notched trowel at a consistent angle.

• Regularly check for adhesive coverage on the back of tiles.

• Allow sufficient curing time before grouting or exposing the tiles to water or heavy traffic.

If the adhesive starts to dry out, remove the dried adhesive from the substrate and reapply a fresh batch. Never add water to rehydrate dried adhesive, as this can weaken the bond. Always work in small sections to ensure the adhesive remains workable.

Regularly clean tiled surfaces with a mild detergent and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that can damage the tiles or grout.

• Use mats or rugs in high-traffic areas.

• Avoid dropping heavy objects on the tiles.

• Use furniture pads to prevent scratching.

• Seal grout lines to protect against stains and moisture

Grout lines should be sealed every 6-12 months, depending on the level of use and exposure to moisture.

Clean spills immediately to prevent staining. For stubborn stains, use a mixture of baking soda and water or a specialized tile cleaner. Avoid using acidic or bleach-based cleaners.

Remove the damaged tile carefully and clean the area. Apply new adhesive and set the replacement tile in place. Allow it to set before reapplying grout.

Deep clean tiled surfaces every 3-6 months to remove dirt and grime buildup. Use a steam cleaner or a heavy-duty tile cleaner for best results.

Ensure proper ventilation in areas prone to moisture, such as bathrooms. Wipe down surfaces regularly and use mold-resistant grout and sealants.

Look for cracks, gaps, or discoloration in the grout lines. Loose tiles or adhesive failure may indicate the need for repairs. Address these issues promptly to prevent further damage.
