Consumption table:

• Before applying the material, clean the surface from any types of oil, rust, detergents, dirt and other substances that prevent setting.
• If there are cracks or cavities on the surface – they must be sealed with Teknorep.
• When laying tiles on a marble or ceramic surface, you should give it some roughness. When laying tiles on a concrete surface, it should be moistened.
