Instructions for Use:

1. Stir the contents of the tub thoroughly prior to use to ensure an even consistency.
2. If you're using porous tiles or materials such as marble, granite, or slate, it's essential to seal the back surface first using Vitcas PVA Adhesive Sealer.
3. For application on fresh cement or plaster surfaces, ensure you also seal that surface with VITCAS PVA for optimal results.
4. Apply the adhesive using a Vitcas 6mm tile comb directly onto the wall.
5. Press the tiles firmly into the adhesive, ensuring a 3mm bed for secure placement.
6. Any surplus Heat Resistant Tile Adhesive must be swiftly removed from tile surfaces with a damp cloth to prevent hardening or staining.
