E-Z Patch® 5 (White) Coping Stone Repair allows you to repair cracks, chips or large missing chunks on coping stones. This product contains special acrylic modified materials with pozzolans (siliceous volcanic ash) and polymers.
After product application, swimming may be allowed the next day. Liquid acrylic bonder is included inside of kit. All of our cement repair kits may be color adjusted using any cement dye. Available in 1 lb., 3 lb., 10 lb. & 50 lb. sizes.
Before mixing and applying the repair material, make sure it is the right color and material match! It is sometimes hard to see exactly what the color will be from computer monitor screens.
Take a small amount of dry material out of the repair kit and mix with water to be the consistency of “Putty”. Then, wet the existing surface that you are trying to match and compare the wet sample to the wet existing surface. If the material needs to be darker, add a very small amount of E-Z Patch Black Cement Dye and dry mix well. If the material needs to be lighter, add a very small amount of E-Z Patch Titanium Dioxide White Cement Colorant and dry mix well. Both colors are available on our website. You can also use any good cement dye. Repeat this process until the color match is satisfactory.

E-Z INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Remove any loose pieces.
2. Scrub area with water and brush using muriatic acid or powdered laundry detergent if needed.
3. Immediately rinse the area thoroughly and allow to dry until slightly damp.
4. FOR RESETTING PIECES OF COPING STONE: Use E-Z PATCH® 3 (Thinset). Apply some to each piece and press into place firmly.
5. Add LIQUID CEMENT BONDER to E-Z PATCH® 5 DRY CEMENT MIX (for using just part of the kit you can use fractions EXAMPLE = 1/4 of the liquid cement bonder to 1/4 of the dry mix).Add water and mix until you get the consistency of very stiff “mashed potatoes”. Use warm water for faster set and cold water to slow set.
6a. FOR CHIP OR LARGER AREA REPAIR: Apply one thin “scratch coat” of E-Z PATCH® 5 and then fill the area full. Trowel it fairly smooth and flat. Immediately remove excess from edges with a moist sponge. For larger areas, apply a little extra E-Z PATCH® 5 without troweling flat and smooth. Wait about 15 min. until firm and then, using a trowel, scrape off excess. If needed, use a nail, etc. to make the older style coping stone pattern by pressing into fresh repair 1/8″ deep. Now immediately trowel the area again flat and smooth with a clean moist trowel for finish.
6b. FOR CRACK OR GROUT REPAIRS: Rub E-Z PATCH® 5 deep into the crack or coping grout joint and remove any excess with a moist sponge.
Allow to dry overnight before swimming.
