Substrates
SCHÖNOX AB is suitable on:
concrete and cement based substrates
masonry (fully grouted)
g ypsum substrates
old substrates such as ceramic tiles, natural
stones and terrazzo
cement plaster, lime-cement plaster
g ypsum plaster
composite elements of polystyrene coated
with mortar
wall panels of leight weight concrete
g ypsum board
plywood, OSB boards
Requirements of substrate
ubfloors must be smooth, sound, clean,
S
dry and free of any contaminants which
may hinder adhesion.
S urface treatments or any “friable” areas of
the subfloor must be mechanically removed
back to a sound base and the substrate
repaired with SCHÖNOX repair compounds
as required.
O ld water-soluble adhesives should be
removed completely, old water-resistant
adhesives should be mechanically removed
as far as possible. The complete mechanical
removal of cutback (i.e. grinding, sanding,
blasting) can be hazardous as old cutback
adhesive may contain asbestos. Do not sand
or grind adhesive residue. Harmful dust may
result. Inhalation of asbestos dust may cause
asbestosis or other serious bodily harm.
Please consult the adhesive manufacturer
and all applicable government agencies
for rules and regulations concerning the
removal of flooring and adhesives that
contain asbestos. Prime remaining adhesive
residues accordingly.
O ld floors such as ceramic tiles should be
thoroughly cleaned and abraded.

Instructions
Always install an adequate number of properly
located test areas to include the finish flooring,
to determine the suitability of the product for
its intended use. As ceramic tile coverings vary,
always contact and rely upon the manufacturer
for specific directions such as maximum
allowable
moisture
content,
adhesive
selection, and intended end use of the product.
Low substrate temperatures and/or high
ambient humidity require longer drying times
for primers.
