SikaCeram-290 StarLight - Multiflow tile adhesive - Sika
SikaCeram-290 StarLight is a deformable, single-component adhesive mortar , composed of cements with high mechanical strength, a high polymer content, selected silica/quartz fillers and specific additives.
This tile adhesive is suitable for making deformable layers up to 15 mm thick.
Suitable for laying porcelain stoneware and natural stone on facades , heated floors , swimming pools and industrial floors.
Features
- Multiflow: adhesive mortar possible in thin or fluid installation
- High coverage (up to 80% more coverage, compared to normal tile adhesive)
- Low dust emission
- Recycled raw materials
- Deformable
- No vertical slip
- Extended open time
Application areas
SikaCeram-290 StarLight is suitable for bonding the following types of tiles:
- All types of ceramic tiles, even large size stoneware porcelain and thin slabs
- Installation of marble and other natural stones, as long as they are not sensitive to water.
SikaCeram-290 StarLight can be used indoors and outdoors, on floors and walls, on the following supports:
- Cement and gypsum base
- Existing sound ceramic tiles or stones, paint, indoors
- Existing sound PVC sheet floors, linoleum and vinyl tiles, indoors.
SikaCeram-290 StarLight is suitable for applications requiring high performance, such as:
- swimming pools
- Laying on heated floors (hydraulic and electrical systems)
- Industrial and heavy-duty floors
- facades
- Spot bonding of polystyrene, polyurethane foam, rock wool or glass wool insulation panels
Application
- SikaCeram-290 StarLight is applied with a notched trowel.
- The amount of product must be sufficient to completely coat the back side of the tiles.
- Tiles should be laid over freshly applied adhesive, applying adequate pressure to ensure full and even contact with the adhesive and therefore optimum adhesion.
If a film seems to form on the surface, the glue has not been used for too long; if this happens, immediately remove the layer of adhesive with a trowel, discard this material and apply a fresh layer of SikaCeram-290 StarLight adhesive. - Avoid application in direct sunlight and/or in high winds/draughts.
- SikaCeram-290 StarLight is specifically designed as an ideal product for laying non-absorbent tiles, indoors, with no limits on tile size or support.
Outside, it is preferable to lay non-absorbent tiles with a size of less than 10000 cm2 (e.g. 100 x 100 cm) for floors, and 7000 cm2 (e.g. 80 x 80 cm) for walls without the aid of a mechanical fastener.
These limits are valid for cement-based, non-heating substrates. - For laying tiles larger than 900 cm² (eg 30 x 30 cm), it is always recommended to apply the technique of laying by double gluing.
Consumption
Consumption is a function of the surface profile and the roughness of the substrate, the size of the tiles and the laying technique (gluing on one side or double-sided).
As an indication, in kilograms of powder per m²:
- Small tiles/6 mm notched trowel: ~ 1.3 kg/m²
- Normal tiles/8 mm notched trowel: ~ 1.6 kg/m²
- Large tiles/notched trowel 10 mm: ~ 2.0 kg/m²
