Special features

This product can be considered universal, since it is excellent for laying almost all types of facing materials.

Glue from the company Plitonit perfectly manifests itself during installation.The special composition of the material allows it to be frost-resistant and water-resistant.
It is important to note that, due to its plasticity, the glue does not allow the tile to creep during laying. This means that you can safely carry out even vertical laying from top to bottom and the result will be perfect.
Unlike other mixtures, during the lining works, this glue does not allow the ceramic surface to strongly settle, which allows the installation to be carried out as correctly and efficiently as possible.
It is also important to note that this glue can be used even for work with a complex surface, for example, painted or with the remnants of a particular floor covering. The mixture dries quite quickly, so during the installation it is recommended to take into account the fact that you will have only half an hour to make an adjustment.
The diluted solution should be used within the next four hours, after that it will start losing its properties, and the final work will not be of high quality.
