General product information

How to install this product

  1. Select Schlüter-FINEC-SQ-AC in accordance with the tile thickness.
  2. Press the trapezoid perforated anchoring leg of the profile firmly into the adhesive and align it (in the case of adjoining plaster or render place the anchoring leg on a suitable adhesive area first).
  3. Trowel additional tile adhesive over the trapezoid perforated anchoring leg to ensure full coverage.

Corner formation with FINEC-SQ-AC

  1. Chamfer the adjoining tiles in the area of the profile by 45°.
    Use the matching corner pieces from the Schlüter-QUADEC profile series in a height of 4.5 mm to create 3 way external corners.
  2. Firmly press the tiles into the adhesive and align them in such a way that the upper profile edge is flush with the tile. The tiles must be fully embedded in the area of the profile. Leave a joint of approximately 1.5 mm.
  3. Completely fill the space between the tile and the profile with grout.
  4. Use suitable materials and tools for the sensitive surfaces to avoid scratches or other damage. Residue of adhesive, plaster or render should be removed immediately, especially from aluminium finishes.
