UltraTile ProPave Grout: External Tile Grout is extremely easy to use, cover large areas with ease using this product by simply brushing it into grout joints.

APPLICATION – WET METHOD
When the tiles are fixed using permeable bedding materials, such as UltraScape perma-bed, ProPave can be applied using the “Wet Application” method. This is by far the most popular method of application which is generally used for patios and walkways. This method uses copious amounts of water during application hence “Wet Application”. Hosing down the fixed tiles with water initially and during application of ProPave:
• saturates the tiles and prevents oils from ProPave penetrating the tiles
• ensures ease of application
• assists with deep penetration of the product into the joint
• aids removal of excess material
Thoroughly pre-soak the area with water before application. Pour the jointing sand evenly across the tiles. Using a stiff broom, brush sand into joints ensuring they are filled to capacity. Ensure the paving surface and sand are kept wet throughout the operation with continued use of gentle water flow from a hosepipe. This water aids deep penetration and compaction of the jointing sand as it drains. Repeat process until all jointing is filled to full depth. Soak the area with water & top up any joints that require further material and wash off excess sand from the surface. This water has to be drained free from the jointing before ProPave will cure and harden, it will only cure hard when all traces of moisture have gone from the full depth of the joint. It is therefore important that for ”Wet Application”, the base of the new installation is permeable to allow water to free drain through into the ground below. Once the jointing has cured and hardened it is unaffected by further rainwater.
