Description
Murefix was developed especially for operations that don’t allow much time, e.g. for a quick fixing of wall hooks, wash basins, radiators, banisters (for stairs and balconies), for grappling of all kinds, and for sealing and dowel work.
Method of use:
- Prepare a creamy paste by mixing 3 parts by weight of Murefix with 1 part water (or 1 kg Murefix with approx. 350 g water). It is important that always the water is worked into Murefix and not vice versa.
- Murefix – paste should be mixed & should be used very quickly, since it becomes as hard as stone within few minutes.
- It is not possible to delay the setting time of Murefix by adding more water.
- When placing dowels, hooks, supports etc., the wall hole must first be widened in funnel form towards the back, then thoroughly wetted, before the Murefix –paste can be placed.
- In order to stop up and seal the irruptions, the Murefix – mortar should be pressed firmly into the leak for 3 or 4 minutes with a trowel or by hand, until the paste has completely hardened. In some cases it will be practical to fill the dry Murefix – powder into the leak and to press until Murefix has set with the penetrating water.
- Since Murefix is setting and hardening so quickly, it is possible to grind the surfaces, if necessary, after a short time already (20 to 30 minutes)
- On larger operations, up to 2 volume– parts of sand can be added. In that case the setting time will be slightly retarded.
Note
Murefix is stored tightly sealed and in a dry place.
During the cold time of the year, it will be better to store Murefix in a warm room and to use warm water for the mixing (Approx.18 °C – 25 °C). The warmer the water, the quicker the hardening .
