  • Working with Cement, Concrete, & Brick

Bond new cement mixes to old concrete! With Weldbond, no hacking, keying or Joint raking is required. Great for: Bonding new cement to tiled, Bricked, granolithic, terrazzo floors and walls, asbestos, breeze-blocks, roofing felt, metal, wood or for resurfacing spawled concrete.

For porous surfaces: Thoroughly clean the surface, vacuum if possible. Thin 1part Weldbond with 5 parts water. Apply this sealer to old concrete and allow to dry. Now apply 3 parts Weldbond with 1 part water. And while still tacky, apply new cement onto concrete.

For non-porous surfaces: Apply Weldbond full strength to the surface while still tacky, then apply new cement.

Repairing concrete floors and stairs: Give sidewalks and patios a "tough-as-nails" quality. Make repairs up to 1" in thickness. Weldbond withstands even trucking conditions. Prime surface with 1 part Weldbond 5 parts allow to dry. Working a small area at a time, coat base with 3 parts Weldbond 1 part water. While surface is still tacky, cover it with a mortar of trowelling consistency. Use a premix cement or make your own. To make this, wet down 3 parts sand and 1 part cement, with 1 part Weldbond and 10 parts water. Note: when finished, do not allow work to dry out quickly. Keep covered (damp) for at least 24 hours.

Dustproofing and sealing porous concrete floors: For a seal that's 100% dustproof, thin 1 part Weldbond with 5 parts water. For heavy traffic areas, recoat as required. This method also prevents salt, gas and oil from attacking concrete driveways and sidewalks. On below- grade or garage floors, leave uncovered a 1 ft. strip along walls. This will act as a "breather strip" in the event there is moisture present under the floor.

Terrazzo, quarry and flagstones: Seal base of floor and tiles with 1 part Weldbond 5 parts water and allow to dry. Before bedding tiles in sand and cement screed (sand mix cement), give floor and backs of tiles a further coat of 3 parts Weldbond 1 part water. While still tacky, apply sand and cement bedding to base and bed tiles. Bedding can be from 1/8" upwards.

For brick tuck pointing: Mix 1 part Weldbond with 5 parts water; then add mortar. To ensure an even stronger bond, clean old mortar joints and spray or mop on a sealing mixture of the 1 part Weldbond 5 parts water, and proceed with the mortar mix.

Rendering over 9 mm. thickness (3.5"): Make a slurry of 2 parts sharp washed sand and 1 part cement. For the water portion ….. use a mixture of 1 part Weldbond to 1 part water. Apply with trowel and allow to dry a minimum of 24 hours. Then apply your render.
