Glassydur

Measure the surface to be coated and calculate the number of plates necessary to cover the area. Depending on the model, the measurements vary.

Tools: Meter and/or tape measure and Calculator

Prepare all the boards to be placed, ordered by the numerical reference on the back of the plate. This number indicates the design of the board, each Glassydur plate has several models to avoid the feeling of equality in its shape and texture, we must never place two plates together with the same number. In this way we will cause a more perfect finish in the final placement.

Start at one side of the area, cutting off one of the plate assembly ends to achieve a square, square cut surface. For a better and faster finish, we recommend using a radial machine, with a diamond disc or a jigsaw with a special tungsten blade.

We place the plate on the surface and make several holes on the surface of the plate and on the wall, preferably in the joints with a drill bit for concrete surfaces.

Tools: Radial or Saw and Drill

Fix the plates to the wall with screw and plug (consult the manufacturer’s technical specifications and support). Later we will proceed to seal the face of the screw with color. Glassydur paste to avoid the vision of it.

If you do not want to use a screw with a plug, there is the possibility of using cementitious adhesive. With this option it will simply be necessary to apply several points of adhesive as a fastening between the wall and the Glassydur to be installed.

It is suggested to use a high-end adhesive cement and depending on the surface to be placed the manufacturers have a very wide range of high grip adhesives.

Tools: Screwdriver, Screws, Plugs, Glassydur Paste, Adhesive.

Proceed to seal the joints between plates that need it with grout mortar in special color of the Glassydur signature. When the grout mortar in the joints becomes solid —the solidification time depends on the surface of the wall, the temperature and humidity— with a wooden or metal stringer the excess mortar is removed, the mortar is tightened and the edges around the stone are sealed. Remove the unnecessary grout residues.

Tools: Glassydur Mortar and “Llaguero”(wood or metal)
