Applications
For penetrating cracks and consolidating suitable stone where a thin epoxy is needed to reach the repair area. Choose it for penetration, not for a raised or unsupported vertical fill.
Selection and Use
- Use dry stone free of oil, grease, coatings and dust. Measure the two components by volume and mix thoroughly.
- Prepare manageable batches and protect areas that must remain free of epoxy. Do not load the repair before full cure.
- For a visible repair, test a compatible tint and follow the permitted colorant addition. Too much colorant can alter the adhesive, so do not estimate the dose by eye.
