Product Overview
To protect atmospherically exposed reinforced concrete structures from attack by acid gases, chloride ions, oxygen, water and water vapour and can be used to produce vapour barriers . The product is also recommended to protect other cementitious substrates and masonry for new and existing structures. Typical applications include : Re-facing and reprofiling concrete & masonry surfaces Flexible coating to bridge shrinkage cracks Waterproof coating for water tanks and reservoirs Vapour barriers Robust coating which can withstand light pedestrian traffic Backing to marble and granite, preventing water ingress and alleviate staining
Brushbond comprises a two component acrylic polymer modified cementitious coating supplied in ready to mix kits. Brushbond can be simply applied by stiff brush, roller, spray or trowel to obtain the desired texture. Note : For potable water applications, please refer to Nitocote CM210 and Brushbond FLX lll data- sheets
The coating should be applied in two coats to achieve a total dry film thickness of not less than 2mm. Areas subjected to light foot traffic should receive minimum 2mm thickness and an additional 2mm coating should be applied to areas of moderate to heavy pedestrian conditions. To achieve the correct protective properties, Brushbond must be applied on to the substrate at the coverage rates recommended.

Technical Specifications
Applications
All surfaces should be dry and free from contamination such as oil, grease, loose particles, decayed matter, laitance, and all traces of mould release oils and curing compounds. This is best achieved by lightly grit-blasting the surface. Where moss, algae or similar growths have occurred, treat- ment with a proprietary biocide should be carried out after the grit-blasting process. Spalled and deeply disintegrated concrete should be removed to sound concrete and repaired with a Fosroc repair system. For further advice, consult the local Fosroc office. It is essential that all surfaces to be treated be pre-soaked with clean water prior to application of Brushbond.
Brushbond liquid should be poured from the plastic container into the metal drum provided. For brush application consist- ency mix with a slow speed drill (500 r.p.m.) fitted with a Fosroc Mixing Paddle (MR3). The powder component should be added gradually to the liquid to avoid lump formation and mixed for 2 to 4 minutes. Brushbond should be immediately used after mixing. Do not mix more material than can be used within the pot life. Keep mixing Brushbond during the application.
Application of Brushbond on hot substrates (i.e. over 40 o C surface temperature) will need the prior application of a primer coat. Mix Brushbond and water in slurry like consistency and apply Brushbond over the primer whilst it is still wet. For best results, surfaces should be damp. In order to obtain the protective properties of Brushbond, it is important that the correct rates of application are observed. Use a short stiff brush (preferably 120 - 200mm width) and apply in one or two coats as required. Spray applications should use the correct mixing ratio to obtain satisfactory consistency. In hot climatic conditions, it is likely that spray application will be the best for exterior decora- tive finishes. Nozzle size should be 3-4mm and pressure of 6-8 bars should be used. It is recommended that for general resurfacing each coat should be 1mm thick. Areas subjected to light foot traffic should receive at least 2mm thickness of Brushbond and an additional 2mm should be applied if conditions are moderate to heavy pedestrian traffic. If in doubt about the condition of the substrate, the local Fosroc office should be consulted.
Brushbond : Theoretical 14 m²/ pack 1mm thickness - Due to wastage factors and the variety and nature of possible substrates, practical coverage figures will be reduced.

Shelf life is 12 months in unopened packs. Store between 35 0 C and 10 0 C in a shaded environment. Protect the powder component from sources of moisture and humidity. The liquid and powder components must not be allowed to freeze.
Brushbond contains cement powders which, when mixed or become damp, release alkalis which can be harmful to the skin. During use, avoid inhalation of dust and contact with skin and eyes. Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves, eye protection and respiratory protective equipment. The use of barrier creams provide additional skin protection. In case of contact with skin, rinse with plenty of clean water, then cleanse with soap and water. In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of clean water and seek medical advice. If swallowed, seek medical attention immedi- ately - do not induce vomiting. Fire Brushbond components are non-flammable. For further information, refer to the product Material Safety Data Sheet.

This is best achieved by lightly grit blasting the surface. 1.2 Treatment with a proprietary biocide should be carried out after the grit blasting, in areas where moss, algae or similar growths have occurred. 1.3 Spalled and deeply disintegrated concrete should be removed to sound concrete and repaired with a Fosroc repair system. 1.4 All surfaces to be treated with Brushbond MUST be pre-soaked with clean water. 2.0 Priming 2.1 Application of Brushbond on hot substrates, i.e. over 40°c surface will need the application of a primer coat. 2.2 Brushbond mixed with potable water in a slurry like consistency should be used as a primer. 3.0 Mixing 3.1 Pour Brushbond from plastic container into the metal drum provided. 3.2 For Brush application, mix powder component to liquid component in the ratio 20kg : 7kg; using a Fosroc propeller agitator attached to a slow speed drill (500 rpm). 3.3 For spray application, the nozzle size should be 3-4mm and pressure of 6-8 bars should be used. 3.4 While mixing, ensure that the powder component is added gradually to the liquid to avoid lump formation and mix for 2 to 4 minutes. 3.5 Mix material usable within the pot life. 3.6 Keep mixing Brushbond during the application. 4.0 Application 4.1 Surface to be treated with Brushbond should be pre-soaked with clean water and should be damp during application. 4.2 Ensure correct rates of application are followed, to obtain best results. Page 3 of 3 constructive solutions 4.3 For brush applications, short stiff brush, preferably 120 - 200mm width is best suitable. 4.4 Apply one or two coats as desired. 4.5 Areas subjected to light foot traffic should receive at least 2mm thickness of Brushbond and an additional 2mm should be applied if conditions are moderate to heavy pedestrian traffic. 5.0 Spray application 5.1 In hot climatic conditions, spray application is the best for exterior decorative finishes. 5.2. Correct mixing ratio has to be maintained to obtain satisfactory consistency. 5.3 The spray equipment should have a nozzle size of 3-4mm and pressure of 6-8 bars, to obtain optimum consistency. 6.0 Hot substrate application 6.1 Brushbond should be applied over the primer whilst it is still wet. 7.0 Cleaning 7.1 Brushbond must be removed from tools and equipment with clean water immediately after use. Section C : Approval and variations This method statement is offered by Fosroc as a ‘standard proposal’ for the application of Brushbond It remains the responsibility of the Engineer to determine the correct method for any given application.
