Vetorep ER359 is a two-component, epoxy-based, thixotropic, solvent-free compound. Once the kit components are mixed, the product becomes a smooth paste used to repair surface imperfections and irregularities, fill blowholes and pores, and is completely impermeable with excellent adhesive and bonding properties. The product’s thixotropic nature allows it to function in vertical and overhead situations without sagging while maintaining an excellent bond.
Surfaces should be clean and structurally sound. Remove any loose or unsound brick or concrete. Surfaces must be entirely free of oil, grease, paint, detergents, rust, or other contaminants. The surface should preferably be abraded by light sandblasting, followed by thorough rinsing to remove dust.
Where a rough surface is difficult to obtain, Vetoprime EP491 should be used to prime the surface. Vetorep ER359 should be applied while the primer is still tacky.
Stir the hardener and base components thoroughly to disperse any settlement before mixing them together. Empty the entire contents of both components into a clean container and mix thoroughly for 2 minutes using a heavy-duty, slow-speed drill fitted with a spiral mixing paddle. Once achieving a uniform color and consistency, slowly add the aggregate and continue mixing until all the components are thoroughly blended.
Apply the mixed Vetorep ER359 to the prepared substrate using a trowel. To avoid sagging on vertical and overhead surfaces, do not apply the mortar greater than 30 mm per layer. If greater builds are required, do not close the first layer’s surface. Apply Vetoprime EP491 after a minimum waiting time of 18 hours, and then apply the second layer while the primer is still tacky.
Clean all tools with freshwater immediately after application. Clean hardened materials mechanically.
