It is white in the container and dries clear with no gloss. Because it is so concentrated, it can be diluted with water for most jobs, which stretches a single litre a long way. Bondall says there is seldom any need to hack, chip or acid etch most surfaces before bonding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere to use it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIndoors: tile bedding and fixing, bonding render or toppings to prepared surfaces, sealing and dustproofing concrete floors in covered areas, priming porous walls before water-based paint, and woodworking and general craft projects.\u003cbr\u003eOutdoors: Bondall directs that exterior sealing needs its separate paving and concrete sealer, and BondCrete is not intended to be exposed to water, moisture or dampness. Treat this product as an interior or covered-area product.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuitable materials include concrete, brick and other masonry, plaster, stone, tiles and timber, along with other porous surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStart with a surface free of dirt, dust, oil, grease and loose or flaking material. Stir well before use. Dilution ratios from the manufacturer (BondCrete to water):\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSealer coat: 1 part BondCrete to 4 parts water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBondcoat for bedding, render or topping: 1 part to 1 part water. Apply the bedding while the coat is still wet or tacky.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdmix for cement, sand and render: 1 part BondCrete to 10 parts water, used in place of mixing water. As a guide, 1L makes enough admix for about 20kg of cement.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWoodworking adhesive: use neat, applied to one surface only. Press the pieces together and clamp lightly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eAllow a sealer coat to dry for about 24 hours before painting with a water-based or acrylic paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUsed neat, it sets in about 30 minutes and reaches maximum strength after 24 hours. Cement mixes made with BondCrete still follow normal curing, with full cure at around 4 weeks. It is not suitable for bonding plastic, rubber, glass or other non-porous materials. It is not suitable for permanently wet areas. Do not seal a floor with it if you plan to use an oil-based paving paint or similar floor coating. Drying times vary with the application and temperature, so allow at least 24 hours between coats. Protect it from freezing and from extremes of temperature and direct sunlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBondall\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBondCrete Bonding \u0026amp; Sealing Agent (Cement Additive)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1L\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite in the container, dries clear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWater-based vinyl acetate polymer mix\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApplication\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNeat from the container, diluted as a sealer or bondcoat, or mixed into cement as an admix\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSet time (neat)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAbout 30 minutes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum strength (neat)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAbout 24 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCoverage (older manufacturer datasheet)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAbout 3.5 m² per litre undiluted, up to about 35 m² per litre at 1:4 dilution\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUse\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInterior and covered areas\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMade in Australia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSafety\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSwallowing it may irritate the stomach and cause nausea and vomiting.
