Remove the adhesive residue from the tiles and the substrate using a putty knife and an adze (claw tool). Dampen the floor or wall and bond the tiles using the flexible, high-strength tile adhesive GOLD or EXTRA POWER.
Complete the application by grouting with the appropriate type of cementitious grout, depending on the joint width. For added flexibility, water repellency, and increased mechanical strength, add ACRYLIC EMULSION to the grout at a 1:2 ratio with water, or grout with DUROSTICK’s VITREOUS TILE GROUT DUROGROUT, without using improving additives.
