The easiest way to calculate the consumption when using Plitonit mixtures and solutions is using a special calculator on the company's official website. To do this, you must enter the layer thickness and indicate the area of ​​the treated surface.

Approximate calculations:

• Plitonit glue B: with a tile length of up to 108 mm, 1.7 kg of dry mix per 1 m2 are required; with a length of 300 mm - 5.1 kg per 1 m2;
• RemSostav plaster: 19-20 kg / m2 with a layer thickness of 10 mm;
• leveler Universal: 1.5-1.6 kg / m2 with a layer thickness of 1 mm;
• primer "Primer 2 Elastic": 15-40 ml per 1 m2 of undiluted primer;
• Plitonit K putty: 1.1-1.2 kg / m2 at a layer thickness of 1 mm.

In any case, the consumption indicator will be preliminary in nature, and the true result depends on many factors, for example:

• comb selection and inclination;
• roughness of the surface;
• porosity of the tile;
• type and size of tiles;
• the experience of the master;
• air temperature during operation.

There are several formulas for calculating the flow rate. For example, to calculate how much grout is required, you can use the following formula: ((tile length + tile width) / tile length x tile width) x tile thickness x joint width x k = kg / m2, where k is the bulk density of the grout ...As noted above, all these are just approximate calculations. Whatever the result comes out, it is more reliable to take the material with a margin.

The choice of an equalizer depends on the casting area and product specifications. When working outdoors or when installing underfloor heating, it is better to pay attention to elastic cement screeds, as they are resistant to temperature changes and have a strong structure after drying. The same leveling agent is suitable for use inside buildings, but, on the contrary, the mixture for interior decoration is not allowed to be used outdoors.

It is recommended to use Plitonit B glue for tiles. It has high plasticity and is suitable for any surface, copes well with work in a humid room. Also, Plitonit B + and Gidrokly adhesives do not lag behind in reliability.

When choosing construction chemicals, consider the following parameters:

• product specifications;
• terms of Use;
• the specifics of the finishing material;
• environmental friendliness of products.

When performing work using construction chemicals, observe the following recommendations:

• follow the instructions clearly;
• observe safety measures;
• use gloves when working with chemistry;
• rinse containers and containers from solutions immediately after completion of work;
• If soil gets into your eyes, rinse the affected organ immediately and consult a doctor.

• Chemistry often dries in unwanted places. If the soil has dried on a tool or wooden covering, you can apply another layer of the same soil to this area and immediately wipe it with a dry cloth, then wipe it with a damp cloth.
• Before applying the primer, you can add a small amount of tinting paste to it, this will add the shade chosen for the final finishing of the putty wall.
• According to some experts, before plastering a concrete wall, regardless of its type, it is still better to first apply a layer of deep penetration primer on it.
