Installation:

All surfaces should be between 40°F (4°C) and 90°F (32°C) and structurally sound, clean and free of all dirt, oil, grease, paint, concrete sealers or curing compounds. Rough or uneven concrete surfaces should be made smooth with a Laticrete latex fortified underlayment or leveling mortar to provide a proper finish. Dry, dusty concrete slabs or masonry should be dampened and excess water swept off. Installation may be made on a damp surface. New concrete slabs shall be damp cured and 28 days old before application. All slabs must be plumb and true to within 1/4" (6 mm) in 10' (3 m). Expansion joints shall be provided through the tile work from all construction or expansion joints in the substrate. Do not cover expansion joints with mortar.

    Customer Questions
    Water cleanup?
    Yes. Clean up with water.
    Is this product rated for glass?
    This product was developed specifically for large format tile, but was not tested with glass. It may work fine but Laticrete suggests either Laticrete Glass Tile Adhesive, or Laticrete 254 Platinum for glass installation.
    Set 6 .in×36 .in wood plank tile on shower ceiling?
    Yes, according to our Laticrete Rep TriLite would be the optimal Thin-set to use here. It has no sag and slump.
    Is Tri-Lite a "modified" thin-set?
    Yes it is a polymer fortified blend of Portland Cement and Silica Sand.
    Can this be used on 12x24 porcelain tile?
    Yes this product is designed For floor and wall installations of interior and exterior ceramic tile, porcelain tile, and stone. It is excellent large and heavy tile mortar. And ideal for most types of thin-set applications.
    Can it be used for 91"x36" tile?
    Yes it will work with this size tile. One thing to consider is that it does not have as much working time as the Laticrete Platinum Plus which we don't stock but can order. If the tile is going on a wall and you are installing all the way to the ceiling, you will want to follow closely the instructions as far as anchoring the tile while it sets to prevent it from falling while setting in the higher areas. Tri-Lite is rated for tile that large. See the Product sheet here for install directions: https://www.masterwholesale.com/media/Laticrete_Tri-Lite_TDS.pdf
