Performances

Classification : Complies with CG2W A, according to NEN-EN 13888. Improved cement-based grouting cement with a reduced water absorption and increased wear resistance. Emicode EC 1PLUS tested conform to EN 13999-2/4. Suitable for BREEAM-projects.
Cleaning resistance : 706 Euro Grout Special WT is resistant against domestic cleaners with a pH-value of 7 or higher.
Consumption : 600-2.500 g/m², depending on the size of the tile, joint width and depth. The following formula will enable you to calculate the required quantity of grouting cement per m²: joint width (mm) x joint depth (mm) x joint length per m² (m¹) x specific weight (1.7) x extra expenditure factor (1.5) =……g/m².
Curing : Depending on the temperature and subfloor, the hardening to a low tension and somewhat flexible joint takes place within 1-2 hours (colours grey and anthracite). Other colours will bond in 6-8 hours.

Application

Application:
  • Multi-purpose, fast drying grouting cement for the flexible and watertight jointing of ceramic wall and floor tiles, as well as natural stone and glass-mosaic in a joint width of 3 to 10 mm, on almost all subfloors, e.g. wood, sheet material, gypsum-based subfloors etc. 
  • Not suitable as an acid- and heat-resistant grouting material.
  • For these applications and when wooden floors are directly affected by shower water, we recommend 703 Adhesive and Spout Epoxy or 702 Multi-Epoxy.

Working Process

Mixing ratio : Add 23 kg 706 Euro Grout Special WT to approx. 4.5 litres of water. 5 kg 706 Euro Grout Special WT to approx. 1 litre of water. For wall and floor application.
Waiting time : After mixing with water wait for a few minutes, stir once again and apply the mixture into the joints.
Application temperature : From 5° to 25 °C (temperature of the surrounding as well as the subfloor).
Processing time : At a temperature of approx. 20° C apply the mixed grouting cement within 60 minutes. Higher temperatures will abbreviate the working time. Apply the dark colours within 35 minutes.
Curing : Depending on the temperature and subfloor, the hardening to a low tension and somewhat flexible joint takes place within 1-2 hours (colours grey and anthracite). Other colours will bond in 6-8 hours.
Storage : Store cool and dry in unopened packaging.
Shelf Life : 12 Months, in unopened packaging. After use close the open packaging well.

* The mentioned values have been established in our laboratory and must be considered as guidelines in view of possible variations in climatic circumstances, subfloor compositions and layer thickness.

Consumption:
600-2.500 g/m², depending on the size of the tile, joint width and depth. The following formula will enable you to calculate the required quantity of grouting cement per m²: joint width (mm) x joint depth (mm) x joint length per m² (m¹) x specific weight (1.7) x extra expenditure factor (1.5) =……g/m².

User manual:
  • For an optimal final result the joints must be free from adhesive and/or mortar residues. When grouting the subfloor, adhesive or mortar should be sufficiently dry.
  • Tiles fixed with adhesive can be grouted after approx. 24-48 hours. Wall tiles fixed in the mortar can be grouted after minimum 4 days. Floor tiles fixed in the mortar can be grouted immediately. Following these regulations, drying of the joints will take place equally.
  • For a good quality of the joint the water/powder ratio is very important. Add 23 kg 706 Euro Grout Special WT to approx. 4.5 litres of cool and clean tap water and stir the mortar for approx. 1 minute, by using an electric stirrer (approx. 600 rpm), to a smooth and homogenous mixture. After stirring wait for a few minutes and stir once again. This gains an optimal application and an extended potlife.
  • Apply the mortar within 60 minutes fully into the joints with a grouting trowel. Remove excess material immediately. Do not add extra water! Mixing without water is permitted.
  • After grouting wait until the joint will turn somewhat dull. Depending on the circumstances (temperature, relative humidity, type of tile and subfloor) this takes place in 15 to 45 minutes. The joint should be sufficiently dry otherwise the joint will be washed out (Tip: when no mortar is left on your finger after touching the material with a fingertip, the joint is ready for sponging).
  • Moisten the entire tile work with a rotating movement with a light moist sponge blade and wait for approx. 1 minute. Through this the residual cement haze can easily be removed from the tile work. When using a sponge bin and sponge blade, roll this thoroughly.
  • Finish tight with the sponge, first sponge the tiles diagonal and next parallel to the joint. Make sure every joint is touched. Thereafter clean the tile work diagonal with a clean, light moist sponge.
  • When dry use a clean and dry cloth for the finishing polish. For an optimal strength prevent accelerated drying of the mortar (through warmth, draught, high absorption etc.) by wetting the joints once or several times within 24 hours.
  • After grouting wait at least 24 hours before walking on the floor. Tile floor with a rigid subfloor which have been grouted with 706 Euro Grout Special WT grey or anthracite are passable after 4 hours.  




Maintenance

Maintenance:

Taking care of the grouting:

For cleaning grouts and to remove any mould use a mould removal product. These products have a chlorine/bleach base and are especially suitable for the use concerned. Cleaning products with a chlorine/bleach base have a pH value of 7 (neutral) or more. These products will not harm the grouting. Some cleaning products, such as green soap, always leave a greasy film to which dirt can easily adhere. These products are also not suitable.

Removing limescale:

Limescale can form on tiles and on the surface of sanitary fittings in regions where the tap water is hard. Almost all limescale removal products are acidic products and have a pH value which is too low. These products will harm cement-bound grouting every time it is cleaned. Even when diluted, the pH value of these products is still too low. The level of a liquid’s acidity is indicated by a pH value of between 0 - 14. Liquids with a neutral level of acidity (such as tap water) have a pH value of 7. Contact the manufacturer if the pH value of the cleaning product is not stated on the packaging.

Forbo Eurocol Nederland B.V. recommends the following when cleaning tiles:

  • Only use a cleaning product in the places where limescale and other dirt is visible on the tiles and the grouting. Wet the tiles and the grouting thoroughly before applying the cleaning product. The cleaning product will then not penetrate so deeply into the grouting.
  • Rub the tiles clean, preferably using a non-acidic cleaning product. Work according the guidelines of the manufacturer!
  • After cleaning the tiles, rinse them thoroughly with tap water and dry them with a cloth.
