Installation in a few steps
IMPORTANT SURFACE PREPARATION
Surface preparation is very important for stone carpet floor applications. In these applications, the most meticulous workmanship should be done in the preparation of the surface and the largest time frame should be devoted to this phase. It will not be possible for the material to be applied on a sloppy surface preparation to show the desired performance.
PREPARATION SURFACE BEFORE PRIMER APPLICATION
Removal of non-bearing layers on the surface, strengthening of dusty surfaces (Concrete-Aggregate separation), removal of oil, cement grout, loose particles, plaster residues on the floor, mold release agents, cured membranes.Clean the surface using a high pressure washer if possible.
Fracture, gap, collapse and crack repair: Fill cracks with the mortar obtained by mixing 0.4/0.8 mm thinnest quartz granule and Primer® D-1K.After concrete surface repair and dedusting the retention of the stone carpet is maximized.The application surface must be dry.
PRIMER APPLICATION
A layer of primer should be applied on the surface to get the best adherence of STONE CARPET.Priming is required when application is on non-porous substrates, such as ceramic/glazed tiles. In this case, Primer® D-1K is used.
In addition, while applying primer on the floor surfaces, sandblasting with 0.4/0.8mm quartz granules at the same time is required, the floor is made rough before the next step.This process helps the applicators to prevent the granules from slipping during the application.
Micronized colored quartz and marble granules produced by ANILO offer various coating solutions on indoor and outdoor floors and walls.
FLOOR APPLICATION LAYER THICKNESS RECOMMENDED BY ANILO
STONE CARPET PREPARATION AND MIXING
Tap the colored quartz or marble granules into a large plastic bucket or industrial mixer.Weigh the granule binder you will use with a precision scale at the rate recommended by Anilo.
Optimum mixing quality:
STONE CARPET (granules + binder) should be mixed with a hand mixer or an industrial mixer until the granules are completely coated with binder, for a minimum of 2 minutes until a homogeneous appearance is obtained.
APPLICATION OF STONE CARPET TO THE FLOOR
You can now pour the granules on the floor spread the trowel until it reaches the desired layer thickness.
After compacting the granules lightly with a trowel and making the floor completely flat, quickly check the area for roughness and remove any roughness.
Finally, give the floor its final plane by compacting the granules at the same time with the finishing trowel.
FOR MORE COMFORTABLE APPLICATION
For a more comfortable application, spray the granules and your trowel with a mixture of 20% glass cleaning water and 80% tap water.
Clean your trowel frequently with Cellulosic thinner during the application phase.
READY FOR USE
The application surface must be dry.Ensure removal of non-bearing layers on the surface, removal of loose particles and plaster residues on the wall.
PREPARATION BEFORE WALL APPLICATION
Before vertical application, fill all cracks on the stairs or walls with our high viscosity WallBINDER® 1K product with the help of a trowel.After the vertical surface repair and dust removal, the stickiness of the stone carpet is maximized.
PREPARATION AND MIXTURE FOR WALL SURFACE
Add our high viscosity full aliphatic polyurethane Wall binder product on the WallBINDER® 1K Marble or colored quartz granules and mix with a hand mixer (2 minutes) until a homogeneous mixture is obtained.
Apply WallBINDER® 1K 1 m2 of high viscosity full aliphatic polyurethane binder to the wall in a thin layer (approximately 130 gr) with the help of a trowel.
Apply the granules mixed with our high viscosity product WallBINDER® 1K, on the vertical surface, with the help of a trowel. Application layer thickness should be 6-8mm.Apply from the ground up.Press the marble and quartz granules evenly.Compress the coated surface by applying uniform pressure to the trowel.
During the Wall stone carpet application;
For a more comfortable application, spray the granules and your trowel with a mixture of 20% glass cleaning water and 80% tap water.Clean your trowel frequently with Cellulosic thinner during the application phase.
TWO DIFFERENT PORE FILLER APPLICATION TECHNIQUES
PORE FILLER FOR ALL WET FLOORS
- Continuous water contact resistance
- Full Aliphatic
- Polyurethane Based
IF YOUR CUSTOMER WANTS GRANULE PORES TO KEEP OPEN
If 100% waterproofing is required on the floor before the stone carpet application, PoreFILER® P-1K topcoat can be applied specifically for all floors and wall surfaces.
IF YOUR CUSTOMER WANTS GRANULES PORES TO BE CLOSED
PoreFILLER® P-1K application after the stone carpet surface It is a transparent pore filler that closes all the pores of the granules and one application is sufficient. In this application it also provides 100% waterproofing.
- Do the application with a hard rubber glass wiper.
- Continuously pull the glass wiper straight and hard.
- Do not leave extra layer on surface application.
- Every time you remove the extra layer on the surface with a glass Wiper, remove the excess layer from your glass wiper.
- During the application phase, make sure that there is a homogeneous layer on the surface, an unequal extra layer leaves a trace.
- Do not leave the packaging lid open during the application phase and the open product can be saved for the next application using the packages lid open and close method.
- Easy to apply with a glass wipers.
- Never apply with a brush!
Due to continuous water contact and rainwater, no lime or chlorine water stains occur.
