Substrate preparation

The joints should be scraped and cleaned immediately after laying the tiles to a uniform depth equal to the tile thickness. The adhesive or laying mortar should be allowed to mature.

Processing PCI Nanofug Premium

Mixing water: see mixing ratio in a clean container, add PCI Nanofug Premium and immediately knead with a suitable stirring or mixing tool, e.g., from Collomix, attached to a drill, to a homogeneous, lump-free mortar. After about 3 minutes, knead again.

Apply the joint mortar with a PCI rubber jointing disc and allow to set. Optionally, rework with PCI Nanofug Premium for a second time. After sufficient setting, perform a finger test with a slightly damp, stable sponge or sponge board. After drying, remove any remaining mortar film with a slightly damp sponge.

Important notes

• Do not process at substrate temperatures below 5°C or above 25°C, or in direct sunlight or drafts.
• Lower temperatures shorten, higher temperatures extend processing time. Protect freshly grouted surfaces from sunlight and strong drafts.
• During grouting and curing, at least 24 hours must pass, and any underfloor heating must be turned off.
• 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.
• Intensive use of highly alkaline cleaners or prolonged exposure to cement-aggressive media can attack the grout. Clean the joints thoroughly before cleaning and rinse with plenty of water afterward.
• 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 is expected.
• Before grouting, secure edge joints and movement joints by inserting styrofoam strips or foam profiles. Remove protective strips before elastic grouting. Grout between tiles, fixtures, and pipe penetrations, as well as corner and connection joints, elastically with PCI Silcofug E or PCI Silcoferm S, and on facades with PCI Elritan 100.
• Use only grout with the same batch number on the same object.
• Mixing PCI Nanofug Premium with quartz sand can alter the original color tone.
