Directions for use
- Place the required amount of Dry-Mix AAC Block Mortar into a mixer or onto a non-absorbent surface.

- Form a mortar bed of approximately 3 to 5 mm thick end to end
- Place the AAC Block on the bed of mortar and remove any mortar that may be squeezed out when the AAC Block is placed and smoothen the joint. Any gaps that become apparent must be filled with mortar allowing the mortar to dry.
- All tools and equipment should be cleaned with water after use.
- Do not re-temper the mortar if it stiffens. Discard the stiffened product and make a new mortar.
