- Clean loose particles, dirt, grease and traces of foreign materials from the surface, if necessary, by using wire brush/sandpaper or by chipping.
- For loose plaster areas or floors/wall which are not even, then remove the defective material and re-plaster the area with Home Sure Ready-Mix Plaster to make them even.
- Take approx.200-300 ml of clean water for 1 Kg of Block Jointing Mortar in a clean bucket. It is very important that add material into water and not vice versa.
- Stir continuously for 3-5 minutes by using mechanical stirrer or by hand to obtain a homogeneous lump- free paste.
- Allow the resultant paste to stand for about 10 minutes for the additives to dissolve.
- Re-mix again for about 2 Minutes. The mixture is now ready to apply.
- Block Jointing Mortar can be laying and joining of masonry units like Fly Ash block, ACC block, hollow, concrete blocks etc.
- Before application surface should be clean and free from dust, grease, oil and any other foreign material.
- Pre-wet the surface of the block before applying mortar. Allow excess water to drain off.
- Apply the material on the block evenly with trowel. For best results it is advisable to use notch trowel of 3 to 4 mm to have better contact and bonding.
- Application should be done by the angle between 35 to 45 degrees, using the right amount of pressure.
- Use fiber hammer to remove any air gaps in between blocks for proper jointing and alignment.
- Fill the gap between two blocks with the help of trowel and remove excess material.
- Mortar should be spread on all sides of the block in such way to maintain the bond thickness 2-3 mm.
- The coverage area however will depend upon the quality and evenness of the substrate, thickness of joints.
- Do not add more water than recommended.
- Maximum thickness should not more than 2-3 mm.
- Block Jointing Mortar contains non-toxic material but still, it is important to wear a safety kit when mixing and handling.
