Overview
Liquid Blue Bond is a construction adhesive used to enhance the adhesion of cement-based materials. It is commonly applied in plastering, tiling, and concrete repairs, providing superior bonding strength and reducing the risk of cracks and detachment.
Why Use Liquid Blue Bond?
- Enhanced Adhesion – Improves the bond between new and old concrete or mortar.
- Crack Resistance – Reduces shrinkage and prevents surface cracks.
- Water Resistance – Enhances durability in humid environments.
- Versatile Application – Can be used for plastering, tiling, and patching.
Common Uses
- Plastering – Strengthens the adhesion of plaster to walls and ceilings.
- Tiling – Enhances tile adhesion and prevents detachment.
- Concrete Repairs – Used in patching cracks and reinforcing weak surfaces.
- Floor Screeds – Improves the bonding strength of screeds for a durable finish.
