Do not add water or fresh joint mortar to joint mortar that has already started to harden to make it processable again. Increased danger of discolouration!

CERAfix 506 is a flexible, ductile and water-repellent joint mortar for filling joints between all absorbent and non-absorbent ceramic floor coverings, such as fine earthenware, stoneware and earthenware plates, brick tiles as well as natural stone coatings in bathrooms, showers and living areas, on terraces, balconies and loggias as well as on façades and for heated screed and jointless floors. CERAfix 506 joint mortar is suitable for indoor and outdoor surfaces. It is characterised by easy application and good edge adhesion. The joints are completely filled and have a smooth surface. CERAfix 506 is suitable for filling joints in wall and floor tiles with a joint width of 1–10 mm.
Surface:
The joints must be clean, dry, free from adhesives, mortar and separating substances. Moisten the absorbent surfaces and tiles evenly before filling the joints.
Application:
Mix joint mortar CERAfix 506 (5 kg) with 1.25 litres of clean water with a paint stirrer in a clean bucket until it has turned into a homogeneous and smooth compound. Give the product 5 minutes to mature and then stir thoroughly again. Always keep to the same mixing ratio to avoid colour differences.
Apply the product with a rubber filler/wiper or a tile jointing float in a diagonal direction until it is flush. Do not mix with other materials.
Clean the tiling with a moist sponge or a moist sponge float after having rubbed down surplus joint mortar. The joints should be cleaned in a diagonal or horizontal direction to prevent washing off the mortar and to achieve a clean joint pattern. Remove the remaining mortar streaks with the sponge float and clean water; repeat if necessary. Regularly replace the dirty water with fresh water.
The new joint filling must be protected from any influences that may affect the hardening process, such as high temperatures, direct sunlight, wind, rain, frost and subsequent moisture penetration.
