Description

Engineer Plus Strong Latex is based on modified Styrene butadiene latex used for high performance applications in waterproofing and repairs. It is used for repairs of spalled concrete such as-floors, columns, beams, chhajjas, stabs & waterproofing of toilets & bathrooms & terraces. It bonds strongly to old & new concrete & plaster.

Typical Application

• As a bond coat – Plaster to plaster, concrete-to-concrete, plaster to concrete for plastering over brick masonry.
• Bonding coat & mortar for tiles & panels, under lays for special finishes such as top rendering coat for chemical resistant floors.
• As waterproofing – Waterproofing of small roof terraces, sunken portions of toilet & bathrooms, chajjas & lift pits, balconies & staircase.
• As crack repair – Repairs of plaster cracks more than 5 mm & in gaps developed between masonry and RCC members.
• As rebar coating-Coating for prevention of corrosion over rebars.
• For Cladding – Fixing or refixing of slip bricks, tiles, stones & marble bedding.
• Concrete repair mortars – Improves the durability of the mortars and it can be used for making polymer modified mortars for patching and concrete repair.
• Cement mortars-For filling holes, reconstructing damaged areas and finishing surfaces on buildings and precast elements in concrete

Features

• Multipurpose-It is multipurpose & economical product, easy to use
• Cracking-It prevents cracking by improving flexural strength
• Hardness – Improves the hardness & prevents dust generation
• Shrinkage-Reduces drying & aging shrinkage cracks
• Bonding-Bonds strongly to concrete, masonry, stone work, plasters, steel & most of the building materials.
• Erosion & corrosion-Improvers erosion resistance & prevents corrosion.
• Abrasion resistance – Improvers abrasion resistance of cement mix.
• Waterproofing-Prevents leakage & dampness.
• Durability – Enhances strength of a repair mortar & provides durability.
• Rebound loss-Less material wastage- material does not fall back/rebound, when used as bonding agent.
• Coverage – Excellent Coverage-70-80 sq.ft per kg/ in 2 coats, hence economical.

Method of Application

SURFACE PREPERATION

• Clean the surface with wire brush or scrubber to remove hidden dirt, loose particles, laitance, & dust. Degrease the surface by using suitable solvents.
• Repair the concrete spalled portion by saw cutting the extreme edges of the repair location to a depth of at least 10 mm to avoid featheredging & to provides strong substrate.
• Clean the concrete surface to remove any contamination where breaking is not possible. Roughen the surface by light scabbling or grit blasting.
• Expose corrodedrebars in the repairing are a fully. Remove all loose scales & corrosion deposits & immediately clean the surface.
