Yes, with a traditional heating, i.e. with a screed above it. Regarding the application, the heating should be turned off four days before the application and put back into service (by steps of 2 to 3 °C every 48 hours above the support temperature) once the Mortex is completely dry (minimum 7 days).
Beal is the only manufacturer of the Mortex product range and has registered the name. We advise you to beware of imitations and counterfeits as they do not meet the same quality requirements.
Mortex has been studied and designed to be a micro-mortar applied in layers from 1 to 1.5 mm with a maximum thickness of 3 mm per system. The application process must be followed in order to ensure the technical nature of Mortex. An extra thickness with an unsuitable drying time can cause microcracks in Mortex. In deco, everything is allowed!
Projects done with Mortex 20 years ago still give satisfaction today. However, this does not constitute a warranty. It all depends on the application quality, the use made of it and its maintenance.
Mortex does not require any expansion joints except if there are some on the support. If they were not provided in the support in places where they are needed, then you will have to consider making them in the Mortex coating.
