Step-by-Step Installation Process
1. Joint Preparation
Ensure adhesive has cured for at least 24 hours. Tile joints must be dry, clean, and free of dust, excess adhesive, and debris. Joints should be raked clean to at least 2/3 of tile depth.
2. Proportioning & Mixing
Pour Part A (Resin) and Part B (Hardener) into a clean mixing pail and blend thoroughly for 1 minute. Gradually add Part C (Coloured Filler) while mixing with a slow-speed mechanical stirrer until a uniform, creamy, streak-free consistency is achieved.
3. Application
Spread grout diagonally across joints using a firm rubber grout float held at a 45° angle, ensuring joints are packed completely without voids or air pockets. Hold the float at 90° to scrape off excess grout from tile surfaces.
4. Initial Cleanup (30-45 mins)
Allow grout to firm up in joints (approx. 30-45 min). Dip a cellulose sponge in clean normal water, wring out excess water, and rub the tile surface in a circular motion to emulsify any residue. Rinse sponge frequently.
5. Final Polish & Curing
After 2 to 3 hours, wipe down the tiles with a clean, slightly damp microfiber cloth to remove any remaining haze. Allow 24 hours before light foot traffic and 7 days for full chemical resistance.
Critical Installation Instructions & Standards
Mandatory site protocols for substrate preparation, mechanical fixing, expansion joints, and curing.
• Water Cleanup: Gaucera Smart Epoxy Grout 300 is 100% washable with normal water during initial cleanup. Do not allow excess water to sit in uncured joints.
• Testing Porous Stones: On unglazed tiles, porous marble, or rough natural stone, conduct a small trial area or apply a grout release sealer to verify ease of cleaning.
• Pot Life Notice: Do not add water, solvents, or thinners to the mixed epoxy grout. Use mixed material within 45 to 60 minutes.
• Protection: Protect newly grouted areas from water, rain, frost, and dust for at least 24 hours after application.
