Description
Estopatch MP is a single component shrinkage compensated pre-packed repair mortar to which water is added on site. It consists of specially blended non shrink cement, graded sand, fillers and chemical polymers to provide durable repair to concrete. The lightweight fillers allow application thicknesses of 40mm vertical and 25mm soffit without formwork.
Estopatch MP has been tested in accordance to BS 6319 on Compressive Strength Test, and complied with the specification in this data sheet.
Uses
Estopatch MP is recommended for use as a general patch repair mortar in vertical or soffit repair applications.
It is suitable for repairing, rendering, patching bedding and pointing of concrete, block-work, brickwork & masonry.
Advantages
Estopatch MP is specially design for the following applications:-
- Medium to high build application
- Convenient, one pack product
- Shrinkage compensated, can be applied over large areas without cracking or de-bonding.
- Composition ensures excellent adhesion
- Water tightness, special additives ensure optimum density and water repellence of cured surfaces
Standards Compliance
- BS 6319
- BS 5075

Application Instructions
Surface Preparation
Substrate shall be thoroughly clean, free of laitance, oil, dust, grease, plaster, paint, corrosion and any other deleterious substances. Smooth surfaces should be mechanically roughened by scrabbling or needle gun to form a good mechanical key. All reinforcing steel must be grit blasted to a profile of SA 2½ prior to the application of recommended primer.
Edges of the areas for repair must be saw cut to 5mm to avoid feather edging and blow out all loose dust with dry, oil free compressed air.
Priming
All surfaces must be primed prior repair. Reinforcing steel must be primed with galvanized protective coating or epoxy system which will prevent further corrosion.
All concrete surfaces should be thoroughly soaked but leaving no surface water.
Concrete surfaces must be primed with Estobond Acryl bonding agent which is scrubbed onto the surface of the concrete. It will dry in approximately one hour. Estopatch MP should be applied when the Estobond Acryl is still tacky.
If the Estobond Acryl is too wet, build up may be reduced due to slippage in vertical situation. If Estobond Acryl is left to dry for more than 8 hours at 20oC, a fresh coat shall be applied.
Mixing
Ensure that Estopatch MP is thoroughly mixed prior to use. It is essential that quantities of one bag or more are mixed with a slow drill (500rpm) with a loop paddle. For normal applications, 4 litres to the maximum of 5 litres water per 25kg bag, dependent on desired consistence. Drier mixes assist higher build and reduce the risk of drying shrinkage.
Application
For application to all surfaces, Estopatch MP is applied with a wood float to ensure positive contact with the primed substrate and initial application should be with tamping or compacting action.
Finishing can be wood float, steel trowel or sponge depending on the requirement.
The minimum layer thickness of Estopatch MP is 10mm and it canbuild up to 40mm on vertical surfaces.
Curing
Estopatch MP is a cementitious repair mortar. It must be cured immediately after finishing in accordance with good concrete practice. Estocure curing agent is recommended for this usage.
Cleaning
Estopatch MP should be removed from tools with clean water immediately after use. Cured material can only be removed mechanically.
