Product Information

Mortar:For both dry and wet installations the best choice would be a latex thinset adhesive and if that’s not available a water-mixed thinset could work be used. PALACE Heat-Resist is a polymer-fortified adhesive, designed to provide a high strength, durable bond in areas where tiles are installed around a radiant source of heat which does not reach temperatures in excess of 250°C. This is typical of conditions found around domestic installations such as a log burning fire, cooking range/stove or a traditional Aga Oven. It is a pale grey powder based blend incorporating special hydraulic binders which produces a non-slump, fast setting paste suitable for fixing ceramic, porcelain and vitrified tiles in areas surrounding a radiant source of heat. PALACE Heat-Resist should only be used for fixing tiles onto solid masonry surfaces or cement board structures which are stable when exposed to high temperatures. Note: It is essential to confirm that all tiles selected for use in this type of location are similarly heat resistant This is an important question and answering it correctly will determine if you need a waterproof adhesive or not. The main bathroom would be considered a wet job whereas a kitchen floor would be a dry job.

The Heat Resistant Tile Adhesive should not be used as a grout. For grouting needs, utilise VITCAS Heat Resistant Tile Grout. Porcelain tiles work in a very similar fashion because of their density and how they're manufactured.Suitable for a Variety of Tiles: This adhesive can be used with porous tiles, marble, granite, or slate after appropriate surface sealing. Just take a putty knife, margin trowel, or utility knife and simply scrape off all of the existing adhesive. When replacing tile adhesive remember to use the same exact adhesive that was used originally. Unfortunately, sometimes this isn’t possible, and if that is the case try to use the same type. So if organic mastic was used, use that. If a thinset was used, use a thinset.

Drywall:A latex thinset is the best choice but a water-mixed thinset or organic mastic could also be used. For application on fresh cement or plaster surfaces, ensure you also seal that surface with VITCAS PVA for optimal results. Heat-Resistant Tile Adhesive: This is what you will need when installing fireplace tiles. You need a heat-resistant adhesive because very high heat can easily damage a normal adhesive. Never use organic mastic where there will be high heat. You need a thinset that can handle at least 400 degrees Fahrenheit. High-Temperature Resistance: Formulated specifically for areas exposed to elevated temperatures, it remains reliable and steadfast where ordinary tile adhesives may falter.
