Item Number: MKA5-492

General

A liquid additive for thin-set, Portland cement mortar mixes for patching concrete, underlayments for resilient flooring, thick bed mortars, leveling beds for ceramic tile, natural stone and other thin applications where bonding is difficult. ADVANTAGES: †¢ Improved adhesion to both old and new surfaces. †¢ Helps reduces dusting, cracking and spalling of tile grout joints. †¢ Improved resilience for thermal movement. †¢ Improved chemical resistance of grout joints. †¢ Improved resistance to water infiltration.

Product coverage

Thin applications usually require 4-5 gallons of 200 Latex for each 100 lb sack of cement.

Product application

Work should be performed only by an applicator trained and familiar with these products, and must be installed in strict accordance with manufacturer†™s application specifications, abbreviated below: †¢ In all cases, sand and cement should be dry mixed prior to adding 200 Latex. †¢ When used as an additive for underlayments 1/4" or more in thickness, use Portland cement and clean plaster sand in a ratio of 3 parts sand to 1 part cement. Use 200 Latex in place of water. †¢ For thinner applications (to a feather edge), substitute fine silica 30-130 mesh for plaster sand. †¢ Thin applications usually require 4-5 gallons of 200 Latex for each 100 lb sack of cement. Thick bed installations will require less liquid to make a trowelable mix. For these drier mixes, apply a wet slurry of 200 Latex and neat cement just prior to application to insure a good bond.
