Masonry components
Clean, dry and not damaged face or clinker bricks.

Instructions for use
Stir the bag contents manually or mechanically with a specified amount of clean and cold water to bring the mix to the homogeneous and consistency. Lay bricks with full joints. Apply the mortar with a trowel and remove the excess after smoothing. After initial setting, profile the joint as required using a grout spreader. Use within 3 hours from mixing with water. If the mortar thickens in that period of time, stir it again thoroughly without adding water. Adding too much water will extend setting time and impair all mortar characteristics, including the adhesion and strength and may also lead to efflorescence on the wall face or discolouration of joints. Work carefully and remove any staining without moistening it. It is recommended to use clean, stainless steel tools.
