About this product

A flexible tile adhesive with a 2 hour working time, joinable after 24 hours and fully resilient after 7 days.

Using this specific product

Schomburg Soloflex is listed here as the Flexible tile adhesive (German sheet) version for flexible tile bed and movement joints. For bonding parts, the useful question is not simply whether the surface looks finished—it is whether the exact next-action milestone shown above has been reached.

Before you start

  • Confirm the package says Flexible tile adhesive (German sheet); related versions can use different timing.
  • For flexible tile bed and movement joints, pay particular attention to surface fit, cleanliness, clamping pressure and bond-line thickness.
  • Working time is about 2 hours. Use between 5 and 25°C. The source gives no conditions for this time.

How to check readiness

Test a noncritical offcut or wait for the stated load milestone before stressing the joint. The sheet gives an open time of 30 minutes. Try a protected edge first and avoid turning, dragging or concentrated loads. Reserve full cure for demanding use, chemicals, washing, immersion or load—not merely gentle handling.

Avoid this mistake

Handling strength and full load strength are different milestones.
