 Merlex
Mighty Bond re-emulsifiable liquid bonding agent used to provide adhesion
of new cementitious materials to existing surfaces. It may also be
used as an admixture to fortify concrete mortars, portland cement
plaster materials and tile grouts. When Mighty Bond is used as an
additive it helps to insure proper curing by retarding moisture loss
during hydration. |

Bonding
Agent
Coverage
|
|
It
will cover approximately 250 to 300 sq. ft. (23 - 27.6 m2)

Bonding
Agent Usage
|
|
When
used as a bonding agent, Mighty Bond undiluted will cover approximately
250 to 300 square feet (23 - 27.6 m2) per gallon.
Note: Coarse or porous surfaces may require more material. |
|
|
|
|
|
Surface
Preparation
|
|
All
receiving surfaces must be structurally sound, clean, free of dust,
dirt, oil, grease, loose stone, deteriorating paint or other contaminants
which could hinder bonding ability. Surface cracks, holes or voids
should be repaired. Smooth or painted surfaces must be cleaned in
an abrasive manner (high pressure water blast, scraping, sanding or
sandblasting) to open surface pores and allow for a good bond. |

|
|
|
Bonding
Agent Application
|
|
For
maximum strength apply undiluted to substrate using brush, roller,
or low pressure spray equipment. Lightly dampen substrate (do not
soak) prior to application. Apply new plaster or concrete material
while Mighty Bond is still tacky. If Mighty Bond dries prior to application
of new plaster mixture, it may be re-emulsified by using a mist spray
of clean, cool water. Mighty Bond will dry to the touch in approximately
30-60 minutes. |

Admix
Usage
|
|
As
an admix to portland cement mixes, 1 or 2 gallons (3.8 to 7.6 ltr)
may be added per each 90 lb. (40.8 kg) bag. Additive ratio depends
on desired bonding strength and degree of impact resistance required. |
|
|
|
|
|
Admix
Mixing
|
|
Mighty
Bond must be diluted with clean water before adding to mix. Do not
add undiluted Mighty Bond to any mixture. Do not exceed 2 gallons
