Jagdamba Paints & Mixture

Description Dr. Fixit Pidicrete URP is based on modified styrene butadiene latex supplied as a ready to use bonding agent in liquid consistency. It is used for repair of spalled concrete – floors, columns, beams, chhajas, slabs & waterproofing of toilets & bathrooms, small terraces etc. as it bonds strongly to old & new concrete and to plasters. It reduces shrinkage, prevents cracking, dust pick up & improves abrasion resistance. Standard Compliance / specification Meets the requirements of BS 6319 part 2:1983 & ASTM C 190-85 standards Areas of Application } For concrete repairs - Spalled concrete of floors, columns, beams, chajja, slabs, parapets, etc. } For waterproofing – Small roof terraces, sunken portions of toilets & bathrooms, chajja & lift pits, balconies } As a bond coat – For bonding of new concrete to old concrete, masonry stone work, plastering } For cladding – Fixing or re-fixing of slip bricks, tiles, stones & marble bedding } As external rendering – Weatherproof & frost resistant render } As bonding slurry coat for pinhole treatment on concrete surface Features & Benefits } 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 – Bond strongly to concrete, masonry, stonework, plasters, cementitious surfaces } Erosion & corrosion – Improves erosion resistance & prevents corrosion } Abrasion resistance – Improves abrasion resistance of the cement mix } Grouting – Reduces viscosity of cement injection grout for better fluidity & bonding Method of Application 1 SURFACE PREPARATION } 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 spalled concrete portion by saw, cutting the extreme edges of the repair location to a depth of at least 10 mm to avoid featheredging & to provide strong bond } Clean the concrete surface to remove any contamination where breaking is not possible. Roughen the surface by light scrabbling or grit blasting } For priming of concrete substrate, the surface should be thoroughly saturated with potable water. Remove any excess of water prior to application 2 WATERPROOFING COATING } For a waterproofing coating Mix URP: Cement in the ratio 1:1.5 by volume } Mix for 2-3 minutes to avoid air entrapment. Keep on slowly adding cement to Dr. Fixit Pidicrete URP until the required consistency is achieved } Brush apply 2 coats of the mix in a span of 4-6 hours on the prepared concrete substrate } Overlay the coating with a protective screed to the desired slope & thickness
