Technical Specification

Description

Python RM is a ready mixed tile adhesive for wall tiling. Specially formulated to give non slip and strong grip properties, ideal for the speedy application of larger format tiles on walls.

NB: When using non-porous tiles like porcelain and glass, drying times will be substantially increased. In these instances we would recommend the use of a cementitious adhesive.

Python RM has been specially formulated for its non-slip, high grab properties, which allow the speedy application of large format tiles. The product is suitable for intermittently wet conditions i.e. domestic showers, kitchens and bathrooms. It contains an anti-fungal additive, which prevents the build up of mould. It is not recommended for exterior use or areas subjected to immersion such as swimming pools.

Suitable Substrates
  • Concrete
  • Cement/Sand Render
  • Concrete Brick/Block
  • Domestic Showers
  • Tile on TIle
  • Tile Backer Boards
  • Existing Ceramic, Porcelain and Natural Stone Tiles
  • Plaster
  • Plasterboard
  • Sand/Cement Screed
  • Fibre Cement Sheet
Preparation

Ensure all areas are clean, dry and free from dust or any other contaminating barriers. Remove any flaking or peeling layers.

Mixing and Application

Apply adhesive to the surface by use of a notched trowel. Bed tiles in fi rmly with a slight twisting action. Clean off excess adhesive from the tile face with a damp cloth and rake excess from the grout lines before it sets. Leave for a minimum of 24 hours before grouting (on impervious or sealed surfaces longer time will be required). Do not apply more than 1m2 of adhesive before tiling commences, as skinning may occur. If skinning does occur it can affect the bond. Maximum bed thickness is 3mm, achieved by using a 6mm by 6mm notched trowel. Spot bonding is not recommended.

NB: All tiling should follow the correct British/European Standard and incorporate movement joints therein.

Cleaning

Tools should be thoroughly cleaned in water to remove excess material immediately after use.
