Once cured, the repair is hard-wearing, durable, and ready for drilling, filing, or painting.
4. What surfaces is it suitable for?
The epoxy stick can be used on:
• Concrete floors, walls, and blocks
• Tiles

• Stone garden ornaments, statues, and birdbaths
It can also be used for anchoring bolts, screws, nuts, and sealing tie rod holes or leaks.
5. How do I prepare the surface before application?
1 Roughen and clean the area to be repaired. Remove loose debris, dust, or dirt.
2 For damp, wet, or slowly leaking areas, forcefully press the mixed epoxy into the surface to ensure adhesion.
6. How do I apply the epoxy stick?
1 Cut or twist off only the required amount. Reseal the remaining stick with the cap.
2 Hand mix the epoxy by kneading with gloved fingers until a uniform colour is achieved. Warm slightly if mixing is difficult.
3 Apply immediately (within 2 minutes of mixing) by forcing the material into cracks or holes. Strike off excess with a water-moistened tool if needed.
4 Allow to cure: Functional strength is achieved after 60 minutes.
7. Can it be painted, drilled, or sanded after curing?
Yes. Once fully cured, the epoxy stick creates a concrete-like texture that can be drilled, filed, sanded, or painted to match surrounding surfaces.
