USES
Typical applications include:
- Concrete Repair: For repairing spalled concrete, floors, beams, and pre-cast slabs
- Floor Screeds and Toppings: Creates abrasion-resistant, non-dusting floors
- External Rendering: Provides waterproof, weatherproof, and frost-resistant render
- Waterproofing and Tanking: Ideal for basements, lift pits, inspection pits, water towers, liquid tanks, effluent tanks, and swimming pools
- Other Uses: Suitable for bedding tiles and fixing or re-fixing slip bricks
CHARACTERISTICS / ADVANTAGES
