Apply the adhesive on the substrate with a notched trowel suitable for the type and format of the tiles to ensure the back of the tiles is sufficiently wetted. Use the double-buttering method where specified by UNI 11493-1. While installing the tiles use levelling systems from the MapeLevel line to maintain the correct width for the grouts and to reduce lippage between adjacent tiles.
Once the adhesive has set, carefully fill the grouts to their full depth using a rubber trowel without leaving gaps or steps. After filling the grouts with epoxy mortar clean the surface while the mortar is still wet fresh with a cellulose sponge dipped in water and a Scotch-Brite® pad where required. Carry out any final cleaning required using UltraCare Kerapoxy Cleaner.
Apply the adhesive with a brush or No 3 notched trowel or roller to bond the waterproofing accessories.

Seal the joints between each single panel with waterproofing tape and seal all the critical areas (corners, edges, through elements) with special accessory items from the MAPEGUARD SYSTEM system.
Cut the panels to the size required with a cutter. Create holes and openings for through elements using a drill with a hole-saw bit or with a reciprocating saw. Use the hybrid sealant and mechanical fasteners to assemble the panels to create partitions and furnishing features.
