FAQs

What is the shelf life of Everbuild SBR Bond?

The shelf life is typically 12 months from the date of manufacture when stored in original, unopened containers in a cool, dry place.

Can Everbuild SBR Bond be used with all types of cement?

Yes, it is compatible with most cement-based products. Always test a small area first to ensure compatibility.

What is the recommended mixing ratio?

The mixing ratio depends on the specific application. Refer to the product data sheet for detailed guidance.

Is it safe to use in contact with drinking water?

No, Everbuild SBR Bond is not intended for use in contact with drinking water.

How long does it take for the mixture to dry?

Drying time depends on factors such as temperature, humidity, and the thickness of the application. Refer to the product data sheet for specific guidance.

How should I clean up spills?

Clean up spills and tools immediately with water while the product is still wet.

Can I use this product in freezing temperatures?

While the product is freeze-thaw stable, it is best to apply in temperatures above freezing for optimal results.

Troubleshooting

Mixture seems too thick or difficult to work with.

Ensure the correct water to SBR Bond ratio has been followed. If necessary, slightly adjust water content, but do not exceed the recommended maximum.

Poor adhesion to the substrate.

Ensure the substrate has been adequately prepared (cleaned and free of contaminants). If applying to a smooth surface, consider priming with a suitable primer.

Cracking or flaking after drying.

Ensure proper curing conditions (preventing rapid drying). Provide adequate ventilation, and keep the surface moist for the recommended time.
