Use
Grout mortar for extra-fine and hygienic tile joints up to 4 mm. Suitable for all types of ceramic tiles, natural stone, glass mosaic, marble , etc. For interior and exterior situations to walls and floors. Ideal for use in wet areas (swimming pools). Especially suitable for grouting rectified porcelain tiles. Allows to renew damaged and eroded tile joints.
Substrates
BEYEM JUNTA EXTRAFINA is suitable for:
- Cement based substrates.
- Cement tile adhesives.
Preparation of substrates
Substrates must be clean, compact and free of substances that reduce adhesion such as dust, oil, grease and with no loose material. Substrates must be dry and free from any rising damp. Empty joints must be dry and clean in all their length and depth. Wet the joints with clean water before application when using very porous ceramic tiles in high temperatures and in the presence of wind. Before starting the application, temporary porefiller BEYEM TAPA protects matt, porous and non-porous ceramic from possible pigment stains.
Instructions for use
Mix manually of mechanically BEYEM JUNTA EXTRAFINA with 1,50-1,60 l per bag (5Kg) of clean water until a homogeneous, creamy and lump-free paste is obtained. The amount of mixing water can be adapted in order to facilitate the application; however, an excess of mixing water may cause a visible shrinkage of the grout. Let the mix stand for 5 minutes before application.
Fill the joints completely using the appropriate trowel or rubber float, making sure the joints are completely compacted, with no unevenness. Remove excess of BEYEM JUNTA EXTRAFINA, while still fresh, from the surface moving the float diagonally across joints.
When the mixture loses its plasticity and becomes matt, clean excess of grout mortar with a damp hard cellulose sponge or rubber float working diagonally to the joints. If cleaning is carried out too early (when the mixture is still plastic), the grout may be dragged from the joint leading to color variation. On the other hand, if the grout has already hardened, it is necessary to clean the surface mechanically, which could scratch the surface of the tiles.
Recommendations
- Do not apply on plastic, metal or wood.
- Do not apply below 5ºC or above 30ºC.
- Do not apply when there is risk of frost, rain, strong wind or direct sunlight.
- When applying BEYEM JUNTA EXTRAFINA in extremely hot, dry or windy days, it is recommended to wet the joints after several hours.
- In outdoor, joins should be protected from rain until completely drying of grout mortar.
- Adhesive should normally be left for at least 24-48 hours before grouting.
- Use BEYEM DESIN to clean up stained tiles (wait at least 15 days after application) . Make sure the product does not damage the tile. Do not use on grouted joints.
- If the grout is required to be completely impervious to water or chemically resistant, use BEYEM JUNTA EPOXY.
- For tile joints larger than 4 mm, use BEYEM JUNTA UNIVERSAL.
- For renovation of damaged joints, a minimum depth before applying must be ensured.

Project specification
Extra-fine and hygienic grouting of ceramic and porcelain tiles, marble or natural stone, must be carried out with a Sanitized® protected, fast drying, high abrasion resistance and low water uptake tile grout mortar compliant with EN 13888 – class CG2 AW, such as Beyem Junta Extrafina manufactured by Rodacal Beyem company. Joints must be free from traces of adhesives and flaky parts. Use a spreader or hard rubber float to apply the joint grout and suitable sponges and clean water to clean joints on completion. Joints of ____ mm width and tiles ____ x ____ cm in size will lead to an average coverage of ≈ ____ kg/m2. Existing joints must be respected and elastic fractionizing and perimeter joints must be created.
