HOW TO PREPARE

  1. Make sure that the floor is even and free of and concave or convex curves so that surface strength is good.  Stones, concave or convex surface, dust, varnish, other foreign objects, materials, etc. degrades the adhesion of the product and results in poor product performance.

  2. Ensure that there is no moisture or foreign substances on the floor.  If found, remove completely.  Less than 8% of moisture should be measured with the hygrometer.

  3.  Installation is ideal after 2 weeks from mortar construction in the summer and after 4 weeks from mortar construction during rainy season.

IDEAL CONDITIONS OF INSTALLATION

  1. During construction, keep the temperature of 18deg. C to 35deg. C, and if not (below 10deg. C), avoid installation.

  2. For installation, products and adhesives should be kept and stored at high temperature for more than 24 hours, and even after installation, maintain a high temperature for at least 24 hours.

  3. For installation in winter, cold weather and rainy seasons, heat the back of the product with a torch lamp without damaging the product for easy installation as well as removal of moisture.

HOW TO INSTALL
  1. Before installing tiles, check out the lot no., so that installation can be made with product with the same lot no.(refer to side of box).
  2. Select installation location according to area of installed space and mark a central line.  Divide into quarters as shown in diagram and apply adhesive a quarter in order.  Then, install tiles after open time of the adhesive passes.
  3. Start installation along the center line from the middle outward and finally finish the wall side.
  4. Beside walls, avoid close installation and leave a space of 1mm between wall and tile.
  5. Attach tile on the floor and press the whole body of tile sufficiently to completely stick on the floor before hardening.  After finishing, apply pressure again.
  6. Remove adhesive with tissue and clean with alcohol or acetone before it hardens(before 1 hour) if adhesive is in any unwanted places.
MAINTENANCE
  A. Clean-Up
  1. Dust or sand on tiles can damage the surface, and foreign substances can change color of tiles.  So remove immediately and periodically clean-up.
  2. For severe pollution, wash with a neutral detergent and clean with a wet mop.
  3. Remove moisture completely so that moisture can not penetrate into joint side of floor when using a wet mop.
  4. Remove with alcohol in case of pollution by solvent, lacquer, chemical medicines.
 B. Treatment of Surface Protective Agent 
  1. For a protective agent, oily or watery wax can be used.
  2. Protective agents which accumulates on surface or are polluted can change color.  So, apply wax remover and let it stand for 5 minutes.  Then scrub with steel wool to remove.
