Surface Preparation
The substrate preparation process impacts YELL51X-OUZ4’s bonding capabilities:
Remove loose debris, dust, oil, grease, paint, sealers, or curing compounds from the surface
Level uneven concrete surfaces with a patching compound at least 24 hours before application
Clean existing tiles with a commercial detergent, followed by thorough rinsing
Maintain surface temperatures between 40°F-100°F during installation
Prime highly porous surfaces with a latex primer
Test moisture content levels below 75% relative humidity for concrete substrates
Mixing and Installation Tips
Proper mixing ratios and application techniques optimize YELL51X-OUZ4’s performance:
Add 5.5-6 quarts of clean water per 50 lb bag
Mix at 150-200 RPM using a corded drill with paddle attachment
Blend for 2 minutes, let stand for 5 minutes, then remix for 1 minute
Achieve a lump-free, creamy consistency
Apply mortar using a notched trowel appropriate for tile size
Create uniform ridges parallel to the shortest tile edge
Press tiles firmly into fresh mortar with a twisted motion
Check for proper coverage by lifting random tiles
Maintain minimum 80% coverage for interior applications
Ensure 95% coverage for exterior or wet area installations
