Application area

• For interior and exterior use
• For wall and floor joints
• For joint widths from 1 to 10 mm
• Suitable for all ceramic tiles, glass mosaics, glass tiles, and all natural stones
• Suitable for use in residential buildings, showers, balconies, terraces, facades, and in public and commercial areas with high moisture exposure, e.g., shower installations, saunas, toilet facilities, sales and presentation areas
• On heated screeds, dry screeds, concrete prefabricates, plasterboard, plasterboards, wood chipboards, wood floors, and in areas with strong temperature fluctuations

Substrate preparation

• Immediately after laying the tiles, scrape the joints evenly and deeply to the tile thickness and clean
• Allow the adhesive or laying mortar to mature

Processing PCI Nanofug Premium

• Mixing water: see mixing ratio in a clean container, add PCI Nanofug Premium, and immediately knead to a homogeneous, lump-free mortar using a suitable stirring or mixing tool, e.g., from Collomix as an attachment to a drill
• After a maturation time of approximately 3 minutes, knead again
• Apply the joint mortar with PCI rubber jointing disc into the joints and allow to set
• If necessary, rework with PCI Nanofug Premium to ensure complete filling
• After sufficient setting, perform a finger test with a slightly damp, firm sponge or sponge board to clean
• After drying, remove any remaining mortar residue with a slightly damp sponge

Important notes

• Do not process at substrate temperatures below 5°C or above 25°C, or in direct sunlight and draughts
• Lower temperatures shorten, higher temperatures extend the processing time
• Freshly grouted surfaces should be protected from sunlight and strong draughts
• During grouting and curing, the underfloor heating must be switched off for at least 24 hours
• If a white film remains on the ceramic surface after drying, it can be removed after 2 to 3 days with a cement film remover. Thoroughly clean the joints and surface beforehand and rinse thoroughly with plenty of water after cleaning
• In case of intensive use, salt-containing cleaners, or prolonged contact with cement-aggressive media, the joint may be attacked. Clean the joints thoroughly before cleaning and rinse with plenty of water afterwards
• When grouting slip-resistant or textured floors, the residual film must be carefully removed while still fresh. Conduct a test grouting or cleaning first
• For polished fine stoneware, color pigments may settle in the micro-pores of the surface. Avoid strong color contrast between tile and joint. Conduct a test grouting if in doubt
• When grouting sharp-edged tiles, it is recommended to use the jointing fleece, see brochure "Work and advertising material for the tiler trade"
• For black color, increased cleaning effort may be required
• Before grouting, secure edge and movement joints by inserting styrofoam strips or foam profiles. Remove protective strips before elastic grouting. For joints between tiles, fixtures, and pipe penetrations, as well as corner and connection joints, use PCI Silcofug E or PCI Silcoferm S elastically on facades with PCI Elritan 100
• Use only joint mortars with the same batch number on the same object
• Mixing PCI Nanofug Premium with quartz sand may alter the original color tone
