LATICRETE® MVIS for Natural Stone Thin Veneer

LATICRETE® has developed an installation system that provides a permanent, high strength installation that is freeze/thaw stable and protected from water intrusion. Backed by either the LATRICRETE® 25 Year System Warranty or 15 Year System Warranty, the LATICRETE® Masonry Veneer Installation System (MVIS) allows for increased productivity utilizing either masonry veneer techniques or the “tile setter’s” method. Architectural details are offered at www.laticrete.com/mvis to help design professionals, contractors, and installers understand the range of possible applications – and appropriate products and techniques which will assure long-term performance on projects of all types.

  Hi-Bond Veneer mortar is a zero VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) mortar, meaning once cured there is no off gassing at all. That’s going to be true for most LATICRETE products. The Air & Water Barrier can go through a limited amount of freeze thaw cycles, typically 3. We recommend tempering the product back to 70 degrees at least 12 hours prior to application and to stir thoroughly right before being applied. For storage purposes, we always recommend storing at 45 degree min.


Cold Temperature Thin Veneer Installation Information

According to LATICRETE, there is a simple rule to follow when the temperature is low during installation: The 18º (8ºC) Rule – for every 18ºF below 70ºF (8ºC below 21ºC), portland cement and epoxy based materials take twice as long to cure.
