E-Z Patch® 7 F.S. Gray Rebar Rust Repair

Instructions & Video

E-Z INSTRUCTIONS:

ABOVE WATER REPAIRS:

1. Lower pool water.

2. Chip out all rust and remove all rust particles out of pool (the particles leave rust stains). It is advisable to chip at least 2” beyond the rust area along the rebar to insure locating the entire rust problem.

3. Rebar must be at least 2” below top surface of plaster. If needed, chip down cement below rebar and hammer rebar down (no need to cut it out).

4. Clean loose debris from the surface.

5. Add LIQUID CEMENT BONDER to E-Z PATCH® 7 F.S. 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). Now add water and mix until you get the consistency of “mashed potatoes. Use warm water for faster set and cold water to slow set.

6. Wall Repairs: Using a mixing trowel (or your hand), firmly apply about a ¼” layer of E-Z PATCH® 7 F.S. on the repair area for a “scratch coat” and then fill to 3/8” from top.

7. Floor Repairs: Add more water and mix to a runny consistency. Fill to 3/8” from top by pouring E-Z PATCH® 7 F.S.

8. Allow to stiffen before applying E-Z PATCH PLASTER to finish.

UNDERWATER REPAIRS:

1. Prepare surface as instructed above.

2. Add LIQUID CEMENT BONDER to PATCH® 7 F.S. DRY CEMENT MIX (use fractions = ¼ of the dry mix to ¼ of the liquid cement bonder, etc.). and add water sparingly to create a very stiff consistency. Use warm water for faster set and cold water to slow set. Wait until cement starts to stiffen more and then place mixture in plastic bag and apply mixture underwater to repair area filling to 3/8” from top. Apply E-Z PATCH® UNDERWATER FAST-SET PLASTER to finish the repair.

Allow setting overnight before swimming.
