Preparing the mix

• Gradually add the Mapegrout Patch 218 to the water while mixing continuously at low speed. Continue for 1 to 2 minutes, making sure the mix is well blended. Scrape free any unblended powder sticking to the bottom and sides of the container. Mix again for another 2 to 3 minutes until homogeneous.

Applying the mix

• For patching applications, the mix can be applied with a flat or gauging trowel with no need for formwork even on vertical and overhead surfaces. The recommended maximum thickness is 30 mm per layer. When a further layer of Mapegrout Patch 218 is necessary, it must be applied before the previous one has completely set.
