Fasten the panels to the substrate with the fasteners and special washers. Insert the fasteners until the washers are sitting against the mesh.
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.
Once the adhesive has set, for porcelain or clinker tiles, carefully fill the grouts to their full depth using a rubber trowel without leaving gaps or steps. Use a product such as MAPEWALL MURATURA FINE to grout strips of terracotta.
