Application steps

MIXING

  • Use a power drill with a mixing paddle at a slow speed of 200-500 rpm.
  • Mix SikaTile®-860 TG Epoxy part A and B with a power drill until the compound is evenly distributed, lump-free, and a thick creamy paste is achieved.
  • Ensure to scrape the bottom and sides of the

    container during mixing.

  • SikaTile®-860 TG Epoxy should be used within 30 minutes after mixing. (depends on working

    temperature)

 

APPLICATION

  • Wait 24 hours after tilling before applying tile grout
  • Use a rubber trowel to fill the joint in a diagonal

    motion

  • Wipe off excess grout
  • Ensure the grout is pressed into the joints and not just sitting on top
  • After grouting for 30 minutes, wipe away excess grout with a damp sponge with water.
  • Remove surplus material from the face of the tiles with a dry cloth.
  • Leave it dry for a minimum of 24 hours before light foot traffic and it will complete cure within 7 days.

CLEANING OF EQUIPMENT

Remove SikaTile®-860 TG Epoxy from tools,

equipment, and tiles with clean water immediately after the application.
