Its extended open time of 30 minutes prevents premature skinning during large-format floor installations, and it can be applied directly over early-age concrete cured for at least seven days, as well as 24-hour-old screeds and renders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003ch3\u003eNumbers that matter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n \u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eC2TES1 Classification:\u003c\/strong\u003e C2 high bond strength (≥1MPa), T slip-resistant, E extended open time (30 minutes), and S1 flexible\/deformable to accommodate substrate movement.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e30-minute open time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Practical installation window to lay tiles before the adhesive bed skins over, preventing adhesion failure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e40-minute adjustment time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Working window to realign large-format panels or correct layouts without breaking the adhesive bond.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e7-day immersion cure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Required curing period before filling pools or exposing immersed tiling systems to service water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e7m² coverage per bag:\u003c\/strong\u003e Estimated coverage rate when applied with a 10mm notched trowel on prepared, flat substrates.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n \u003ch3\u003eWhere to use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eC-Mastic bonds to structural, porous, and non-porous substrates including:\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eConcrete (minimum 20MPa, cured 7 days with a wood float finish)\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eScreed and render (cured for at least 24 hours)\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eRendered masonry and blockwork\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003ePlasterboard linings and compressed fibre cement sheeting\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eGripset waterproofing membranes\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eExisting well-bonded tiles (mechanically abraded to remove 80% of the glaze, or primed with \u003ca href=\"\/products\/gripset-op-primer\"\u003eGripset OP Primer\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n \u003ch3\u003eLimitations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n \u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eDo not apply when surface or ambient temperatures are below 5°C or above 35°C.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eNot recommended for fixing tiles directly onto timber floors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eNot suitable for use with moisture-sensitive natural stone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eDo not spot fix; tiles must be bedded into a full wet adhesive layer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n \u003ch3\u003eHow to apply\u003c\/h3\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eAll preparation and tiling must be carried out in accordance with AS 3958.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003ePrepare surfaces to ensure they are clean, sound, dry, and free of laitance, curing compounds, and release agents.
