NOVABOND is an acrylic polymer emulsion developed for the purpose of improving the bonding of Novacrylic surface systems to uncoated pavements. Novabond, when used in a mixture of Portland cement, sand and water, then applied to clean concrete in slurry form, casts a film of acrylic-concrete over the pavement. This acrylic-concrete coating has excellent adhesive characteristics to both concrete and acrylic coatings. While the Novabond slurry coat acts as a laminating agent, and bonds the entire surfacing system together, it also fills some voids, leaving a more uniform surface to apply the Novacrylic coating system over. ADDITIONAL ADVANTAGES OF NOVABOND: Novabond can also be used as an additive to concrete mixes in place of some of the water. This addition of Novabond dramatically increases the strength and adhesion properties of the concrete, especially in patches and thin applications. When used as the binder for a patch mix, Novabond will improve the performance of the repair. APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS: DO NOT mix more than will be used in 30 minutes. Dilution (Slurry for concrete): 2.5 gallons NOVABOND, 200 lb sand (50-60 mesh) plus 5 gallons water. Above mix covers 1800 sq. ft. plus 1/94 lb. Bag Portland cement Dilution (Concrete Patch): Dilute equal parts of Novabond and water. Use diluted NOVABOND in place of water in prepared concrete patch mix (example ìSakreteî) or in 1-part Portland cement to 2 or 3 parts sand, add liquid until desired consistency is obtained. Dilution (Acrylic Patch mix for Asphalt Primer): Equal parts Novabond and Water. Dry mix 100 lb sand with 1.5 gallons (20 lb) Portland cement. Add undiluted NOVABOND to achieve the consistency desired. For deep patches, use course sand. Very deep patches, add some small stone. Prime area prior to patching. Minimum Application Temperature: 50°F and rising. Color: Milky white Packaged Quantity: 5 gallon pail, 30 gallon drum, 55 gallon drum Weight: 8.7 lbs per gallon Novabond concrete mixes must cure 24-hours before application of Novacrylic surface system.
