Product Description

Retanol Xtreme is a rapid-drying screed additive from Mapei that dramatically accelerates the drying time of traditional sand–cement screeds. When added to the mix, it allows screeds to be ready for floor coverings in as little as 24 hours instead of the typical 1 mm per day rule, making it essential for fast-track construction and refurbishment programmes.

Key Benefits

Dramatically reduces screed drying time — floor coverings from 24 hours
Eliminates the need for forced drying or dehumidification
Compatible with underfloor heating systems
Does not affect the final strength of the screed
Reduces risk of moisture-related flooring failures
Easy to dose — add directly to the mixing water
Suitable for bonded, unbonded and floating screed installations

Application

Add Retanol Xtreme to the mixing water before combining with sand and cement. Use one 20 kg bag per 100 kg of cement in the screed mix. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution. Lay and compact the screed as normal. The screed will achieve walkability in approximately 12 hours and be ready for floor coverings from 24 hours at 20°C. Apply at temperatures between +5°C and +35°C.

Coverage

One 20 kg bag treats approximately 100 kg of cement. For a typical 4:1 sand–cement screed at 50 mm depth, one bag covers approximately 8–10 m².
