Oxy-Bond 31 Special
Oxy-Bond 31 special is an epoxy resin based solvent-free, thixotropic, structural two part building adhesive and repair mortar. Designed to give excellent moisture tolerance and water resistance, Oxy-Bond 31 special is designed for use at temperatures of 50C and 300C. Specifically developed with a lower mixed viscosity for easier workability at low temperatures and excellent adhesion to damp surfaces, which is usually common within the building industry. Oxy-Bond 31 special bonds well to most building materials including concrete, stone, brick, wood, glass and metal. Due to its excellent adhesion it can also be used for adhering building materials, including brick slips, onto glass reinforced plastic (GRP) bases.

Substrate Preparation
Mortar and concrete should ideally be older than 28 days, but may depend on the users minimal requirement of strength. The substrate should be clean, dry and free of dirt, oil, grease or surface treatments and coatings. Remove all loose friable material to achieve a textured surface.
Application and mixing
Mix the base and hardener 3:1 by volume or weight respectively with a folding action to minimise air entrapment. Ensure a uniform colour is achieved before application. Apply the mixed adhesive to the prepared surface using a spatula or trowel. When applied to moist or wet surfaces work the adhesive well into the substrate surface. Ensure components are fully supported during curing to prevent any slippage. Clean all tools immediately after use with thinners as cured material can only be removed mechanically.
