Pinnacle

White and Grey cement based, high polymer modified, high strength adhesive for fixing tile & stone on wall/floor in interior/exterior situations at up to 6mm bed thickness (can be extended up to 12 mm in area of limited extent). The set adhesive is water-resistant and non-slip. Pinnacle is flexible and can accommodate shocks due to impact load and heavy traffc. It is used for fixing ceramic, vitrified & fully vitrified tiles, glass mosaic, porcelain, terrazzo, natural stone and engineered stone. Note: Not recommended for direct use onto gypsum plaster (wall finishes), paint or metal.

1. Spread not more than the area which can be tiled within the open time of        the adhesive.

2. Comb the adhesive to the required depth using a suitable square notch        trowel.

3. Press the tiles firmly into position with a slight twisting action, checking       periodically that good contact is maintained with the back of each tile. Leave    no voids behind tiles.

4. Tiles should be fixed within 20 minutes of adhesive being applied,         depending on the porosity of the surface and atmospheric conditions. Tiles    can be adjusted up to 15 - 20 minutes after fixing. Touch the adhesive    ribs periodically and if a skin has formed, remove the adhesive and apply a new layer.

5. Leave adequate joints between individual wall and floor tiles unless self spacing tiles are used.

6. Clean off surplus adhesive from the tile face and between joints

   Substrate Preparation

   Before starting any work ensure that the base is:

• Suffciently flat to permit the specified flatness of finished tiling, bearing in mind the permissible   thickness of the adhesive.                                                                      

• Suitable for tiling in the service conditions to which it will be exposed.

• Surfaces to be tiled must be dry, clean and free from loose material and contamination.

Coverage

approx. 3.0 kg/m² using a 6mm x 6mm

square notch trowe

Note:

Coverage will depend on the nature and flatness of the surface and the method of application. For good coverage, It is vital that all surfaces are smooth, plumb, Level and free from defects and undulations.

Add PINNACLE to clean water. Mix thoroughly until a lump-free mortar is obtained. A 20 kg bag will require approx. 4.7 - 5.2 litres of water to obtain a slump-free consistency. The adhesive is immediately ready-for-use and has a pot life of 3 hours. No further water should be added. Where mixing by weight is not possible, volume mixing can be carried out at site in the ratio of   1 : 3 (water : powder) In case of using TUFEX AD : Use 1 litre of TUFEX AD with 3.7 - 4.2 litres of water and 20 kg of PINNACLE
