Resulting Properties
This waterborne, sand-filled formulation illustrates the use of flexibilizing epoxy resins to impart good sealing properties to tile. It also has thermal compatibility with exterior concrete applications including patching of slab and joint spalls, skid-proofing loading docks and ramps, crack sealing and waterproofing, grout bonding of pre-cast concrete supports, and grouting of recessed electrical wiring, posts, tie-down fixtures, etc.
