Can I use Command™ Products on glass windows?
It is okay to use Command™ Products if the glass is not exposed to direct sunlight and not flooded with water. For glass shower doors use our special Water-Resistant line of products (blue strip) which are clearly marked on our packaging.
Will Command™ Products stick to brick?
No. Command™ Products are intended for mostly smooth surfaces such as those listed above. However, our products will stick to painted, smooth cinder block (the type found inside many school and office buildings).
Can I use Command™ Products on fresh paint?
Paint should be fully cured (check paint can for manufacturer's cure time) before using Command Products. We recommend waiting 28 days before use on fresh paint. Also, alcohol may remove or dull the surface of fresh paint.
Can I use Command™ Products on wallpaper?
No. Most wallpapers are too delicate and can tear when adhesives are applied.
Will it hold soundproofing acoustic foam board or decorative plates?
Yes, provided the item is within the weight limit specified for Command™ Picture Hanging Strips. We do not recommend hanging tapestry or other fabrics. For decorative plates, please ensure there is a smooth surface for the strip to adhere to. Do not hang valuable or irreplaceable items.

Concremate Expanding Anchoring Cement
Anchor, patch and lock in place with confidence. Concremate is a high-performance expanding cement designed for rapid, reliable anchoring and structural patching. Mixed to a workable, mortar-like consistency, it expands slightly as it cures to counteract drying shrinkage. That controlled expansion grips embedded items and surrounding material tightly, delivering a secure, long-lasting hold that stands up to strain, stress and vibration.
Why choose Concremate
Fast turnaround: initial set in about 30 minutes and hard in approximately 1 hour, so many jobs can progress the same day.
Expands and grips: engineered expansion of about 0.125% offsets shrinkage and locks into the substrate.
High ultimate strength: cures to a finish that becomes harder than standard concrete at 28 days when properly mixed and applied.
Versatile application: ideal for anchoring bolts, rails, brackets and fixtures, as well as patching holes, chases and cracks.
Durable performance: forms a robust, long-term bond that resists severe mechanical stress and vibration.
Where it excels
Use Concremate for secure embedment and structural repairs on common mineral surfaces. It is suitable for:
Concrete and masonry
Brickwork and stone
Tiles and terrazzo
Plaster and similar mineral substrates
Typical projects
Anchoring handrails, posts, machine base bolts, threaded rods and heavy brackets
Fixing door and window hardware to masonry openings
High-pressure grouting under plates, around pipe sleeves and service penetrations
Patching voids, chased conduits, spalled edges and impact damage in floors, walls and ceilings
How it works
Concremate is a mineral-based expanding cement. After mixing with clean water, the paste hydrates and begins to set. A small, controlled expansion during cure offsets natural drying shrinkage. The result is a tight, interference-style fit that increases grip on embedded items and keys the patch into surrounding material. For best results, the material must be able to expand slightly while drying and should not be constrained in a completely sealed cavity.
Directions for use
Surface preparation: Remove dust, loose material, laitance, oil and contaminants. Roughen smooth surfaces and blow or brush clean. Pre-dampen porous substrates to a surface-saturated dry condition; do not leave standing water.
Mixing: Add powder to clean water while stirring until a smooth, lump-free, mortar-like consistency is reached. Mix only what you can place within the working time. Do not over-water.
Placement for anchoring: Fill the prepared hole or pocket from the bottom up to avoid entrapped air. Insert the fixture or fastener while the mix is workable and align immediately. Hold steady until initial set.
Placement for patching: Tightly pack the mix into the void in layers, compacting each layer to ensure full contact. Strike off and finish the surface as required.
Curing: Protect from rapid drying, wind and direct sun during early cure. Avoid vibration or load until the material has hardened.
Cleanup: Clean tools and splashes with water while product is fresh. Once hardened, mechanical removal may be required.
Good practice tips
Plan the job so placement occurs immediately after mixing for best expansion and bond.
For deep holes or large voids, place in lifts and compact each lift.
Do not confine completely in a sealed cavity; allow space for controlled expansion.
Avoid adding sand, cement or other admixtures that can change performance.
Performance and durability
When correctly mixed and applied, Concremate develops a hard, dense matrix with strong adhesion to mineral substrates and embedded metals. The slight expansion on cure reduces micro-gapping at the interface, improving load transfer and long-term durability. After full cure at 28 days, the set material achieves hardness that exceeds standard concrete, supporting demanding anchoring and patching tasks.
Safety and handling
Wear suitable gloves, eye protection and a dust mask when mixing and placing.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. In case of contact, rinse with plenty of water.
Store in a cool, dry place in the original, tightly closed container.
Keep out of reach of children and pets.

Storage

What to expect on the job
With suitable surface preparation and correct mixing, you can expect a smooth placement, quick set and a dense, high-integrity bond. The expansion action helps lock hardware and patches into place. Protect new work from early movement and moisture loss, then return to service once the hard set has been achieved and the repair or anchorage has reached the necessary strength for your application.
Limitations
Not for use where the mix cannot expand slightly during cure.
Do not apply over active movement joints or flexible substrates.
Working and set times vary with temperature, humidity and mix ratio.
Note: Always trial on a small, inconspicuous area or non-critical hole to confirm suitability for your specific substrate and conditions.

Davco Davelastic Tile Adhesive Additive 1 L is a reliable latex additive to upgrade cement based tile adhesive performance chosen for home repairs, trade work, and craft builds when you want a bond you can trust. Designed for Australian conditions, it balances strength, ease of use, and clean application so you can get professional results without special tools. The 1 L pack is ideal for general work and keeps neatly in a toolbox or caddy.
Why choose Davco Davelastic for your next project
Everyday jobs often involve mixed materials and imperfect surfaces. Davco Davelastic Tile Adhesive Additive 1 L has been formulated to wet out well, grab quickly, and cure to a tough finish that resists movement and contact stress. It maintains bond integrity across common temperature swings and has dependable resistance to moisture and most household chemicals. Whether you are fixing, building, sealing, or assembling, this product gives you confidence from first squeeze through final set.
Best for
Improving bond strength and flexibility
Situations where extra deformability is required
Wet area tiling as part of a system
Suitable surfaces
The adhesive works well on the following surface types when properly prepared:
Concrete, screeds, and renders
Cement based adhesives and grouts as specified
Surface preparation
Good preparation is the key to a long lasting repair. Remove loose material, dust, and grease. Wipe glossy areas with methylated spirits or an approved cleaner and allow to dry. On very smooth plastics and metals, lightly roughen with fine abrasive paper to give the adhesive a mechanical key. Dry fit parts first and mark alignment points so you can assemble accurately within the open time. If bonding porous materials, ensure both faces are dry and free of surface chalking.
How to use
Check fit and plan clamping. Do a trial run without adhesive so you know the order of steps.
Apply a thin, continuous bead to one surface. For wide pieces, use a zig zag pattern to maximise wetting.
Bring surfaces together within the stated open time of follows the base adhesive behaviour. Reseat once if needed, then hold steady.
Apply even pressure using clamps, tape, weights, or temporary fasteners. Avoid squeezing all adhesive out of the joint.
Allow to cure undisturbed. Initial handling strength will develop as the adhesive sets, with a full cure reached based on the chemistry described below.
Cure profile
Replace all or part of the mixing water with the additive as directed. Observe normal set and cure times for the base adhesive.
Temperature and environmental performance
Use within the recommended application window of the system you are modifying. Avoid application to very cold, sweating, or waterlogged surfaces. For outdoor use protect fresh bonds from rain until the skin has formed and the core has progressed in cure. Once fully cured, the bond resists normal weathering, splash water, and intermittent UV exposure based on the substrate and paint systems used.
Clean up and finishing
Wash tools with water while the mix is fresh. When cured, excess can be carefully trimmed or sanded. For painted finishes, allow the adhesive to fully cure before priming. Test paint on a small area to confirm compatibility and drying behaviour.
Coverage guide
Coverage varies with bead size, surface porosity, and technique. As a general guide, a 3 mm bead yields approximately 10 to 12 linear meters per 310 mL cartridge. Smaller packs scale proportionally. Gaps, rough edges, and highly absorbent materials will reduce coverage. Plan an extra margin for offcuts and practice passes.
Tips for best results
Work within the recommended open time so the adhesive can properly wet the surfaces.
Use light clamping pressure to keep parts aligned while maintaining a film thickness for strength.
For very porous substrates, apply a thin precoat as a primer layer and allow it to tack before final assembly.
Keep joint lines clean by masking edges with painter tape and removing it before the adhesive skins.
Where movement or vibration is expected, design the joint to share load across a large area.
Troubleshooting
Poor adhesion: Check for oil, release agents, or surface dust. Reclean and lightly abrade if necessary.
Slow cure: Low temperature and low humidity extend cure time. Maintain moderate conditions for best results.
Visible squeeze out: Wipe fresh material with a suitable solvent and a soft cloth. Once cured, trim carefully.
Bond line prints through paint: Allow a full cure, then prime and apply thin coats of paint, allowing proper drying between coats.
Storage and shelf life
Keep sealed. Protect from freezing. Shake before use. Always check the pack for a lot code and use by guidance. Reseal immediately after use and store upright. Dispose of empty containers responsibly.
Safety
Read the label before use. Wear gloves when handling uncured material. Provide ventilation in enclosed areas. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep out of reach of children and pets. If sensitivity occurs, stop use and seek advice. Do not ingest. First aid directions and detailed handling information are available on the package and the safety data sheet.
Frequently asked questions
Can I bond dissimilar materials? Yes, provided each surface is clean and sound. Differences in expansion are managed by the adhesive film thickness and the inherent flexibility after cure.
Is clamping required? Light clamping improves alignment and final strength. Excessive pressure can starve the joint of adhesive which reduces performance.
Is the bond water resistant? Once cured the bond resists splash water and routine humidity. For permanent immersion choose an adhesive designed for underwater service and follow the manufacturer guidance.
Planning your job
Measure twice and cut once. Dry assemble parts so you can confirm squareness and alignment before adhesive is involved. Keep rags, clamps, and spacers ready. If you are new to the product, test on offcuts to get a feel for bead size and squeeze out. A consistent 1 to 2 mm bond line is a good starting point for most rigid materials. Thicker lines help when surfaces are uneven. Avoid starving the joint by pressing too hard without giving the adhesive a place to reside.
Responsible use
Choose an adhesive that suits the materials and the environment the finished piece will face. If a joint will be submerged, carry structural loads, or be exposed to strong chemicals, check the technical data sheet for specific guidance. Many general purpose products are perfect for day to day work, while specialised tasks call for a system designed and tested for that environment. Using the right product first saves time, money, and rework.
Aftercare and maintenance
Adhesive joints are remarkably strong when used correctly. Design repairs so that routine loads are shared across a generous area. Where heavy vibration is present, pair the adhesive bond with appropriate mechanical fasteners. Keep cleaning chemicals mild, and avoid abrasive pads on visible joints. If a bond will be repainted, choose flexible paint where movement is expected, and keep edges sealed to prevent dirt tracking along the bond line.
Recycling and disposal
Allow empty containers to cure before disposal. Check local council guidance for recycling of plastics and metal cartridges. Never pour uncured product into drains or soil. Wipe tools on scrap material and let residue harden before placing in general waste. Smart handling keeps the workspace clean and reduces environmental impact.
