In addition, the Kwik Mix 30kg Stone Bond Premium Mortar Mix is a construction grade mix designed for the installation of manufactured and natural stone. It can be used as a bond coat, scratch and brown coat and as a mortar joint grout over concrete and masonry surfaces or galvanized, expanded metal lath.
A 27.2kg (60 lb) bag will cover approximately 1.2 m2 (12 sqft) at 12mm (1/2") thickness. Coverage in joints will vary with width. Add 3.7L (1 gallon) of water into the mixer for each bag. Mix mortar thoroughly for a minimum of 5 minutes. Adjust water as needed. Use only clean potable water. Prepare surfaces properly. Consult stone veneer manufacturer’s instructions. Apply ½" of mortar over CMU wall, sheathing or rigid insulation. Apply ¾" of mortar to the back of each stone unit. Cover back completely. Press coated unit firmly on the wall. Some mortar should be squeezed out around the stones’ edge. Ensure complete coverage between the vertical surface and back surface of the stone. Use a grout bag to fill in joints. Avoid smearing on stone. Accidental smears should be removed only when dry. Use a dry brush. Finish joints when thumbprint dry with a metal or brush tool.
