Application Situation
Bridge, Florida Keys
Application Method
Application was carried out in accordance with Belzona Know-How System Leaflets FPA-1 and FPA-5.
Belzona Facts
Other conventional repair methods failed in very short time. Belzona® 4151 was mixed with pea gravel. This provided a base layer of material in the cracks and potholes. This was then overcoated with Belzona® 4111. The application took place overnight to minimize traffic interruptions.
