Description

Additive for mortars and concrete

Use

« BIBO » is a white liquid resin that, mixed with a cementitious mixture, has the property of adhering mortars and white leads to the existing substrate. This adhesion, even for thin thicknesses, is very strong on most building materials, in order to avoid in many cases the peaking operations that are made to improve the adhesion. After dying, « BIBO » does not absolutely fear water. This product has a high degree of elasticity especially in thin thicknesses.

Preparation of surfaces

Make sure that the support is well dry; remove any efflorescence with a brush. Any friable parts will be removed in advance. It is necessary to wet thoroughly before proceeding.

Preparation of the product

« BIBO » is added to mortars and white leads, mixing with the water of mixture. In all cases in which this product is used to adhere plasters or recasting, it is necessary to prepare the substrate by spreading a grout of « BIBO » as adhesive product. For the subsequent layer of mortar, plaster, recasting, the substrate must be prepared by spreading a grout of « BIBO » as adhesive product. For the subsequent layer of mortar, plaster, recasting or other, regardless of it contains or not « BIBO », the grout of « BIBO »   must be applied and, once dried, it is essential to apply a second coat immediately before laying the next layer. This is an essential condition for achieving the adherence.
