PRODUCT DETAILS
IN DETAIL
FWM is a ready-to-use, white, solvent-free, soft paste which bonds perfectly to adhesives used for fixing ceramic tiles and natural stone.
It may be used on all commonly encountered wall substrates including plasterboard, gypsum or cementitious render, lightweight cement block and marine plywood.
FWM should be applied using a brush or short pile roller to give a continuous thin layer of product at least 0.4mm thick.
Junctions between wall and floor and all corners should be reinforced with Reinforcing Tape.
Allow to dry for approximately 2 hours before applying a second coat. This time will be extended depending on thickness applied, porosity of substrate and temperature if less than 20°C. Allow 24 hours before tiling.
