FAQs
Can this be used for floor tiles?
This adhesive is specifically formulated for cork wall tiles and decorative wall coverings, not for high-traffic flooring.
How do I clean up excess adhesive?
Since it is a water-based formula, you can typically clean up wet adhesive with a damp cloth or sponge before it cures.
What is the coverage of one bucket?
One 5kg bucket covers approximately 10m2 or 107.63 sqft, depending on the thickness of application.
Is it safe to use in a bedroom or nursery?
Yes, because the adhesive is odorless and water-based, it is generally safe for interior living spaces.
Do I need to mix this before use?
No, this is a ready-to-use formula and does not require any thinning or mixing.
What temperature should the room be during installation?
Maintain a standard room temperature (typically 18°C to 25°C) for optimal bonding and drying times.
Troubleshooting
Adhesive is drying too fast during application
Apply to smaller sections of the wall at a time and ensure the substrate is not overly porous or dry.
Poor adhesion to the wall surface
Verify the surface was properly cleaned and degreased; consider applying a primer if the wall material is highly porous.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting your installation, ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and free of dust, grease, or loose debris. While the adhesive works on both porous and non-porous surfaces, highly absorbent surfaces should be primed first to ensure the adhesive does not dry too quickly. Use a notched trowel to maintain a consistent depth during application. For care, keep the bucket tightly sealed when not in use to prevent the polymer from drying out. If you have leftover adhesive, store it in a cool, dry place away from freezing temperatures.
