Description

JOLLY TRANSPARENT (available in liquid and tixo version) is a mastic based on synthetic resins and it is used to plaster all kinds of marbles and natural stones. Thanks to our different available versions, it’s easy to apply and always ready to satisfy the different requests. Very strong, it gets hard and perfectly polishing after the consolidation.

JOLLY TIXO GOLD is a transparent creamy mastic with a light-yellow color, right for particular works to do, such as plasting of the travertine, also in vertical position. TIXO TRANSPARENT version is even more transparent than GOLD version, but it is not suitable for vertical processing.

STORAGE

Keep the container well closed and stored in a cool (temperature below 25°C) and ventilated environment for a maximum period of 12 months from the date of production marked on the tin. Avoid direct sun exposure.

SAFETY RULES

During the application and the drying time ventilate the place. It is recommended to use the appropriate PPE during the application phase. Read carefully the safety data sheet before application.

APPLICATION

Make sure that surfaces to be filled are perfectly clean and dry;
Mix the product;
Take from the tin the amount to be used with clean tools, adding 1-3 grams of hardener per 100 grams of product;
Mix the right amount blending the two components;
Apply JOLLY on the surface to glue or to plaster, and remember that the mastic totally hardens after 30 minutes; the time of hardening will be shorter with temperatures above 25°C and longer with lower temperatures.
Do not put back hardened and/or unused product into the tin in order to prevent that the entire content get spoiled;
Close the tin after use, in order to prevent the hardening of the product due to air contact.

Application	Putty knife
Hardener	1 – 3 % benzoyl peroxide
Gel time	4 – 5 min	(MI 003; 25 °C)
Ready for stacking	10 – 30 min	(MI 012; 25°C)
Full dry	24 h	(MI 012; 25°C)
Polishable	After 24 h	(MI 012; 25°C)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Do not apply on wet surfaces to prevent an incomplete hardening.

In order to avoid product browning, do not use hardening more than 3%.

ILPA JOLLY TRANSPARENT Fit Checks for Clear and Vertical Mastic Work

ILPA JOLLY TRANSPARENT and TIXO GOLD are clear mastic options for marble and stone gluing when the buyer needs a clean bond line, practical handling, and a controlled finish after polishing. This product page is most useful for comparing consistency choice, vertical application needs, sag resistance, and polishable bond behavior rather than choosing a colored repair mastic.

Buyer check	Why it matters	What to confirm
Clear mastic requirement	A clear mastic helps keep marble and stone gluing work visually lighter than a strongly colored filler.	Confirm stone tone, joint visibility, final polish level, and whether the bond line will remain exposed.
Liquid version	A lower-flow clear mastic option can help when the job needs filling behavior across narrow seams or controlled horizontal work.	Check gap size, surface preparation, working time, and the finishing sequence before full production use.
TIXO GOLD vertical application	Vertical application needs placement control so the mastic does not move before it cures.	Confirm wall panel, edge, stair, or upright repair conditions, then choose the tixo version when sag resistance is the priority.
Polishable bond	The repair has to survive sanding and polishing without leaving the surface looking uneven.	Review cure timing, abrasive sequence, gloss target, and inspection under direct light.

Choose ILPA JOLLY TRANSPARENT and TIXO GOLD when the project needs clear mastic behavior for marble and stone gluing, vertical application, consistency choice, sag resistance, and a polishable bond. For color-controlled visible joints, compare ILPA JOLLY MASTIC; for colorless repair where the key issue is a very quiet filled area, compare ILPA JOLLY GLASS.
