Description
Dunlop Ardit Rapidset Repair Mortar is an extremely fast-hardening construction mortar from Dunlop Trade (ARDEX Australia), formulated for patching cracks, holes and damaged sections with minimal downtime. Repairs can take foot traffic after just 45 minutes and accept floor coverings after 1 hour, so a morning patch job doesn't hold up the rest of the day's work.
Where to use it
Suitable for indoor and outdoor repairs on concrete, render, screeds, masonry, plasterboard, timber and fibre-cement sheet. It is handy for patching floors before coverings, forming small ramps, and tidying up around doors, windows and plumbing penetrations internally.
How to use
Clean out the damaged area so it is sound and dust free. Mix the powder with clean water (approximately 1.5L per 5kg) to a smooth, workable consistency and apply firmly with a trowel, compacting into the repair. It can be worked from a feather edge up to 20mm thick and shaped before it stiffens. Work in small batches, as the working time is around 15 minutes.
Important notes
Only mix what you can place within the working time. Deeper repairs can be built up in stages. Backed by a 10 year guarantee when used as directed - see the technical datasheet for full details.
