Keracolor FF is a high performance cementitious grout, polymer modified, for joints up to 6 mm.

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS

Keracolor FF is a blend of cement, very fine-graded aggregates, special polymers, additives and pigments. The use of special hydrophobic additives (DropEffect and BioBlock technology) gives grouting mortars highly water-repellent properties, making them less prone to dirtiness and with excellent durability. The addition of BioBlock® technology resists the growth of mould and mildew, allowing the grout to be easily cleaned.

The following features are obtained when mixed with the right water ratio and used correctly:

– water-repellent and droplet-effect;

– mould and mildew resistant

– good compressive and flexural strength, good resistance to freeze/thaw cycles, and therefore good durability;

– a smooth final surface with low water absorption, therefore easy to clean;

– excellent abrasion resistance;

– low shrinkage, therefore an absence of cracks and fissures;

– good resistance to acids with pH >3;

– excellent value for performance.

When mixing Keracolor FF with Fugolastic, a special synthetic resin-based polymeric additive, the final characteristics are improved for use even under harsh conditions (grouting façades, swimming pools, bathrooms, floors with heavy traffic). For further information, consult the Fugolastic technical datasheet.

Grouting interior and exterior floor and wall tiling (single fired, double fired, klinker, porcelain tile, etc.), stone material (natural stones, marble, granite, agglomerates, etc.), glass and marble mosaics.

Some application examples;

– Grouting floor and ceramic wall tiles in interiors.

– Grouting swimming pools.

– Grouting particularly smooth and glossy floor surfaces (smooth and polished porcelain, pre-smoothened and polished marble, glazed tiles).

– Grouting ceramic tile industrial flooring where resistance to chemical agents is not required (garages, warehouses, etc.).

 

APPLICATION

Preparing the joints
Before grouting, wait until the installation mortar or the adhesive has completely hardened. Verify that the waiting time indicated on the relevant technical data sheet has elapsed. The joints must be clean, free of dust and raked back to at least 2/3 of the tile thickness. Excess adhesive or mortar should be removed whilst still fresh.

Wet the joints with clean water when using very porous ceramic tiles in high temperatures and in the presence of wind.

Preparing the mix
While stirring, pour Keracolor FF into a clean, rust-free container containing 26 – 28% by weight, dependant on grout colour, of clean water or Fugolastic (if required in the application). When grouting floors, the mixture can be made thinner by adding more water (approx. 27 – 30% by weight). Mix with a low speed mixer to avoid excess formation of air bubbles, to a smooth
consistency. Wait 2-3 minutes and briefly re-stir before use. Use the mixture within 2 hours of preparation.

Applying the grout
Fill the joints completely with Keracolor FF using the appropriate MAPEI trowel or rubber float, making sure the joints are completely compacted, with no unevenness. Remove excess Keracolor FF, while still fresh, from the surface moving the float diagonally across joints.

LIMITATIONS

– Do not mix Keracolor FF with cement or any other products. Never add water to the mixture that is beginning to set.

– Do not blend different grout colours together as there is a risk of colour inconsistency and lack of uniformity of the final shade once the grout has set.

– Never mix Keracolor FF with salty or dirty water.

– Use the product in temperatures between +5°C and +35°C.
