Application Situation

The Belzona application was carried out in one day and was returned to service the following day after that, giving a turnaround of just 2 days. The alternative would have taken much longer and also necessitated the saw-cutting and breaking out to cast new concrete, which would then have had to be left for a number of weeks to fully set

Application Method

Break out loose and friable materials and vacuum
Apply Belzona 4911 to all target areas
Mix and apply 4151 resins and 4111 aggregates
Trowel off to compress and leave to cure
