APPLICATION PROCEDURE
Preparing the joints
Grouting may take place when the adhesive
is completely set. Make sure that the waiting
times indicated in the technical data sheets
are followed.
The joints must be clean, free of dust and
empty down to at least 2/3 of the thickness
of the tiles. Any adhesive or mortar which has
seeped into the joints while laying the tiles
must be removed while still fresh. With very
absorbent tiles, high temperatures or windy
conditions,

Preparing the mix

Before mixing the grout with water, dry-blend
the product to avoid color variations in the
finished grout, which may arise from pigment
settling during transport. If two or more bags
are to be used, all of the contents should be
dry-blended together.
While stirring, pour Ultracolor Plus into a
clean, rust-free container containing 20-26%
by weight of clean water.
Mix the grout with a low-speed mixer to
avoid air entrainment, until a smooth paste
is obtained.
Let the mix stand for 2-3 minutes and stir
again briefly before use.
Use the mix within 20-25 minutes of its
preparation.
Applying the grout
Fill the joints with the Ultracolor Plus mix
using a special MAPEI grout float or rubber
squeegee, without leaving any gaps or steps.
Remove any excess of Ultracolor Plus from
the surface, by moving the float or the rubber
squeegee diagonally to the joints while the mix
is still fresh.
