Abocrete™ Kit
Liquid Epoxy Compound for Patching, Resurfacing, and Rebuilding Concrete.
Uses: Abocrete bonds, levels, fills, rebuilds, and resurfaces concrete and most rigid surfaces. This versatile epoxy is blended with fine sand, creating a structural grout and filler that can be used for countless applications. Repair industrial floors, docks, sidewalks, driveways, stairs, parking decks, and more. Abocrete is perfect for fixing pitted, spalled, worn, or cracked concrete and is ideal for salt damage repairs. It makes a great slip-resistant floor and deck coating by broadcasting sand or ColorGrit™ over the wet Abocrete. It eliminates tripping hazards both at home and in the workplace. Abocrete works great for anchoring posts and railings and installing machinery, precasts, columns, and more. Use with forms to rebuild steps and vertical columns.
Features and Benefits: Abocrete creates repairs that are permanent and cost-effective. It is easy to mix and apply. Blend in fine sand to create a cement-like epoxy compound that self-levels and is shrink-free. Thicken the compound by adding additional sand or aggregate. Abocrete can be applied in any thickness for a finish that is stronger than concrete! It is unaffected by salt water, oils, and chemicals that erode concrete. It holds up well to heavy forklift and truck traffic.
Technical Characteristics: Mixing ratio: 4 parts A to 1 part B. Add sand to reach desired thickness. Coverage: 1 gallon of Abocrete, without sand or aggregate, covers 80 sq. ft., 20 mils thick. One Abocrete kit with sand covers approximately 28 sq. ft., 1/8 in. thick. Apply with simple hand tools or with a brush, paint roller, or squeegee. Pot life: approximately 20-30 minutes. Hardens in 1-5 hours depending on temperature. 100% epoxy solids. Contains no water or solvents. Colors: choose from light gray, dark gray, clear amber, beige, or brick red. Abocrete can be painted after hardening.

Customer Questions & Answers
- what primer or bonding agent do you recommend before the Abocrete is applied to a deeply spalled, 2 or 3 square foot area ( ~1/2 " or more deep ) in an industrial concrete floor? We used the abocrete without sand last year using no bonding agent and the patch only lasted about 3 months. We let it cure for a week before driving fork lifts over it. Should we use sand in the mix for increased strength ?

You should make sure the area is complete clean, free of any dirt, oil etc prior to applying the product. You can use the PrimKote 8006-1 as a primer to the Abocrete. Addition of sand is desirable, especially in thicker sections. Thicker layer of unfilled resin may separate or crack .

I have an exposed aggregate pad about 8' X 8' at my front door. I can't stand to walk on it with bare feet. Here in GA shoes are optional year round! Can this product be poured on cleaned aggregate to sufficiently cover it and make it smooth? How much would I need to cover 64 sf to a depth of 3/8"?
