Applications
Select OmniGrip for interior walls, floors and countertops where sag resistance and a lightweight adhesive are useful. Concrete, masonry and plaster must be properly prepared; gypsum wallboard and exterior-grade plywood have dry-area restrictions.
Selection and Use
- A larger tile allowance does not mean rapid drying: dense tile, high humidity and temperatures below 60°F can greatly extend the minimum 24-hour wait before grouting.
- Do not use on shower floors, in steam rooms, underwater or over radiant heating.
- Do not bond over waterproofing membranes, coated backerboard or prohibited non-porous surfaces. Have CUSTOM verify preparation for existing tile or laminate rather than assuming every existing finish is suitable.
- Not for resin-backed or moisture-sensitive stone, transparent glass, translucent stone, ungauged stone or gauged stone thicker than 3/8 in.
- Use the coverage estimates to plan quantity, then check actual contact behind tile. Choose a cement mortar if the installation cannot provide acceptable adhesive drying.
