Ressi TA FLEXI STONE 3

Ressi TA Flexi Stone 3 is a ready-to-use acrylic polymer emulsion adhesive designed for the installation of flexible stone veneers in interior and low-demand applications. It is formulated to provide adequate adhesion, ease of application, and cost efficiency, making it a practical solution for standard decorative works. The product is suitable for bonding polymer-backed flexible stone sheets to common building substrates, where exposure conditions are controlled, and structural movement is minimal.

AREAS OF APPLICATION

• Installation of flexible stone veneers (1–5 mm thickness)
• Interior wall cladding and decorative finishes
• Feature walls and architectural elements
• Low-stress vertical applications
• Low-demand exterior applications (protected or non-critical areas)
• Suitable substrates include:
• Cement plaster
• Concrete surfaces
• Gypsum boards
• Fiber cement boards (interior and protected exterior applications)

ADVANTAGES

• Cost-effective solution – ideal for budget-sensitive projects
• Easy application – smooth consistency for simple installation
• Ready-to-use – no mixing required
• Good workability – allows uniform spreading
• Adequate bond strength – suitable for standard applications
• Low voc formulation – safe for indoor environments

SURFACE PREPARATION

Substrate must be clean, dry, and free from dust, oil, grease, or loose particles. Ensure the surface is level and structurally sound. All necessary surface repairs, including crack filling or substrate restoration, must be completed prior to application of the adhesive. Ressichem offers a range of suitable crack fillers and repair compounds, including non-shrink cementitious grouts, specifically designed for surface preparation and repair.

APPLICATION

The adhesive should be applied using a notched trowel with a notch size of 3–6 mm, ensuring an even and uniform spread over the prepared substrate. Once applied, the flexible stone sheet should be carefully positioned onto the adhesive bed and pressed firmly into place using a roller or consistent hand pressure. It is essential to achieve a minimum of 90–100% contact coverage between the adhesive and the stone backing to ensure proper bonding. Care must be taken to eliminate any air pockets or voids behind the sheet, as these may compromise adhesion and long-term performance.

TECHNICAL DATA
