Tenax Travertine Filler
Tenax Travertine Filler is used to horizontally repair, rebuild, glue, and fill travertine, as well as similar stones. It’s a semisolid consistency that is smooth and easy to spread. It is used to fill all-size holes in travertine and will accept a polish. Not suitable for temperatures below 32°. Recommended for interior use. Other colors are available upon special request.

Instructions for Use
Make sure the surface to be treated is dry, clean and free of dust. If adding coloring paste do so before mixing with catalyst. An excess of coloring paste may affect the final product so use caution. Mix the catalyst with glue at 2 -3 parts to 100 parts of glue in weight (see chart below). Stir vigorously and apply. Apply a slight excess to account for shrinkage. Let the filler dry until the excess can be cut off with a razor blade. Remove leftover traces with acetone. Do not place unused Tenax Travertine Filler back in the can. Make sure the can is sealed tightly after use
