Yes. Mapetex 50 H20 25MT is formulated for use in wet areas and can be used both internally and externally, offering resistance to water and frost-related stresses.

Mix the powder with clean water to form a smooth, lump-free paste. Use a low-speed mixer to avoid air incorporation, then let it rest briefly and remix to a uniform consistency before application.

Spread the adhesive onto the substrate with a trowel to a uniform bed. For larger tiles, back-butter the tile as well to ensure full bed contact and reduce voids. Place tiles within the open time specified by the datasheet and slide them slightly to adjust alignment.

Consider substrate cleanliness, moisture control, and ambient temperature. Use the appropriate notch trowel for your tile size and work in manageable sections to maintain an even adhesive bed and proper tile alignment.

Wear appropriate PPE such as gloves, eye protection, and a dust mask when handling the dry powder. Avoid inhaling dust, and wash skin and clothing after use. Keep out of reach of children and store in a dry place.

Store in a dry, sheltered area away from moisture. Keep the unopened packaging sealed and protected from excessive humidity to preserve performance characteristics.

Yes. It is suitable for external applications and offers resistance to frost, making it appropriate for a variety of climates and exposure conditions.
