Support quality

- Concrete: Concrete shall be free of dust, loose or poorly bonded material, surface contaminants, and materials that may reduce bond or prevent suction or wetting of repair materials.
- Reinforcement: Remains of oxides, mortar, dust and other materials that may prevent adhesion or contribute to corrosion must be removed.

Support Preparation

- Concrete: Damaged and deteriorated weak concrete and, where necessary, sound concrete should be removed by suitable mechanical means.
- Armor: Surfaces should be prepared using abrasive blasting or high pressure water techniques.
- Bond Primer: Normally no primer is needed on a properly roughened prepared surface. When priming is not required, a previous surface moistening of the support is necessary. The surface must not be allowed to dry before applying the repair mortar. The surface should acquire a dark matte appearance, without shine and without puddling. When a bonding bridge is necessary, apply a bridging resin. The subsequent application of the mortar must be done fresh on fresh, when the bonding bridge has not yet hardened.
- Reinforcement protection: On the steel, apply a thick layer of anti-rust primer with a brush, avoiding staining the concrete. Let dry completely (minimum one hour).

How to use

- Apply Ferbalca Monofer Rep-3 with 3.5 - 4 liters of clean water per bag, with a slow electric mixer (500 rpm) for two minutes, until a plastic consistency is obtained, but without it falling off the palette.
- Apply Ferbalca Monofer Rep-3 with a trowel, filling and compacting the area or repair as much as possible, in successive layers of 0.5 to 5 cm. The coat should have started to harden before the next one is applied.
- The finish is done by troweling Ferbalca Monofer Rep-3 with a suitable tool (plastic trowel, wood trowel, porex,...) or smoothing with a trowel.

Observations

- Do not apply Ferbalca Monofer Rep-4 on plaster or painted surfaces.
- Do not make thicknesses of more than 10 cm per application.
- Application temperature: from +5ºC to +35ºC (measured on the support).

Performance
