DOSAGE
The optimum dosage of E.M.REPAIR to meet specific requirement depending on porosity and
rough substrate, the normal dosage range is from 1.5 to 2.5 kg/m2/mm thickness of layer.
SURFACE PREPARATION
Surfaces should be clean sound and free from oil, grease, laitance and loose particles.
Metal surfaces should also be clean and free of rust, oil, grease and contaminants.
The concrete should be pre-saturated for preferably 6 hours with water before application.
MIXING
E.M.REPAIR is simply mixed with water to yield a stiff easily workable compound with shrinkage compensating properties.
The quantity of water depends on the desired consistency but as a guide, we recommended,
the entire contents of the bag should be added to the pre-measured (5-5.5 liters approximately) water while mixing.
Mix with a paddle mixer or trowel to ensure a homogenous lump free material is achieved.
Do not try to remix the product after losing workability by the addition of more water.
APPLICATION
1. Remove damaged concrete and prepare exposed steel reinforcement.
2. Thoroughly clean repair area using high pressure water jet to remove all loose debris and contamination.
3. Replace damaged concrete using E.M.REPAIR, build up in layers if necessary. Apply E.M.REPAIR with a trowel or spatula.
Press hard by hand. Thicker repairs may be achieved by working in layers.
CURING
Keep repaired areas damp, with spraying water at least 24 hours.
