If walls and floors are permanently stressed by humidity, the facing must cope with increased demands. Also in this case, the Baumacol system will arrange proper composition of areas to be lined.
1. Preparation of substrate: bonding primer Baumit Grund
2. Levelling or slope layer: e.g. Baumit FkexBeton
3. Water-proof insulation: insulation paint Baumacol Proof or screed Baumacol Protect
4. Sealing tapes: Baumacol sealing tape and accessories
5. Adhesive: according to the type of tiling, e.g. Baumacol FlexTop, FlexTop Speed, FlexMarmor, FlexUni
6. Grout: Baumacol PremiumFuge
7. Silicone cement: Baumacol Silikon
Sealing slurry for the creation of seam and jointfree seals
Flexible adhesive mortar for the bonding of brick slips and tiles for exterior use. Suitable for heavy thermal and static stresses.
Elastic, water-repellent grout from 2 to 7 mm
Permanent elastic sealing tape for wall and floor connections
1. Before binding, the substrate must be carefully cleaned. The substrate must be dry, clean, firm, and not frozen.
2. Use floor screeds Baumit Nivello for levelling of unevenness, if needed, or Baumit FlexBeton for making a slope layer.
3. Treat the substrate with the bonding primer Baumit Grund or Baumit SuperGrund to ensure better adhesion and equalize absorbability.
4. Places exposed to directly spraying water, such as showers, bathrooms etc., shall be treated by the insulation coat Baumit Baumacol Proof or the screed Baumacol Protect.
5. Before application of the insulation coat, insert the Baumit Baumacol Sealing Tape to corners.
6. Spread the adhesive for facing and tiling by a suitable scoring tool in the 45 – 60° angle. It is recommended to apply adhesive on the substrate and also on the bottom part of facing to ensure better adhesion of facing to the substrate.
7. Slightly press facing component to the prepared adhesion bed. Position of the facing or tiling can be corrected within app. 5 min. Remove potential residues of adhesive by a wet sponge.
8. After drying the adhesive, press the jointing material diagonally to joints by a rubber spatula. After 5 to 15 minutes, wash the facing and the tiling by clean water by a soft sponge.
9. Inject silicone cement to the joints by an injection gun. It is suitable for filling of expansion or assembly joints.
