Reason for Introducing Grip Stone

Looking at the current scenario of construction industry, in market the use of Marble, Granite etc is growing very fast, but while fitting this, for better grip we need to rough the unpolished surface. Today everyone is trying different ways to rough the unpolished surface, sometimes it is successful, and sometimes it fails, resulting in de-bonding of Marble, Granite etc and damage of costly material. Adhesion of Marbles, Granite, Tiles, and stone, to smooth or even rough surfaces is always doubtful. Till today there is no specific product which can be used for roughening the unpolished surface and improve bonding. In order to address changing trends and issues of de-bonding, we have introduced innovative specially formulated product for the purpose of roughening and improved bonding of the unpolished surface

Where to use

Grip Stone can be used for interior and exterior purposes. It is a specialized product for roughening the unpolished surfaces of Marble, Granite or any other natural stone / tiles before fitting for better grip. It can be used on any size of Marble, Granite or any other natural stone / tiles. Once it is applied on Marble, Granite or any other natural stone / tiles, after 24 hours, you can fit it with cement / or suitable product to any Concrete structures, render sand, all cementitious products, to new and old cement plastered surfaces, to ceramic /porcelain tiles, concrete, brick, stone and marble surfaces even Tile over tile, marble over marble, granite over granite…etc.

Surface Preparation

While fitting of Marble, Granite or any other natural stone / tiles we keep polished surface out and fix unpolished surface with wall. So we have to apply Grip-Stone on unpolished surface for better grip. The unpolished surface must be clean, free of oil, grease, wax, dust, sand, dirt, laitance, paints etc.

Product Features

  • Ready to apply.
  • Contains fine aggregates to impart better mechanical bond.Grip Stone is only bonding agent which imparts both mechanical and chemical bond.
    a) Mechanical Bond – Imparted by the suspended fine aggregates, which are inert, screened on 500-microns sieve, Pure white in color.
    b) Chemical Bond–Imparted by dry polymeric film.

Coverage

  • Approximate Coverage would be 05 Sq Mtr. per Kg.,(Single Coat).
  • Depends Upon background surface and its suction properties.

Application Instructions

  • Recommended cleaning methods are by high-pressure water jets and (or) soap washing.
  • Open the original packing and stir it properly.
  • Do not dilute with water or solvent.
  • Do not add any admixture
  • Grip Stone can be applied with paint roller or paint brush, and it shall be pressed firm against the surface and spread thin and evenly.
  • Apply Grip Stone to the cleaned surface evenly, then clean all edges and remove excess material.
  • Thin continuous unbroken film is recommended.
  • Allow Grip Stone to dry for Approximately 24 hours of drying time.
  • After drying don't pull the film formed.
  • Can be fitted with cement or suitable product.
