CemBond
Polymer-based bonding liquid
WHAT IS CEMBOND?
To dispense with hacking when plastering, tiling or painting onto smooth or friable surfaces. It can be used as an adhesive, a bonding liquid for friable surfaces, as a primer for PVA and acrylic paints, as a cement additive to improve adhesion, mixed with cement as a crack filler and mixed with propriety crack fillers to limit “ghosting” of filled spots when overcoating with paint. It can be used in plaster mixes to improve the strength and integrity of the plaster and is invaluable for improving the adhesion of cement based decorative coatings to difficult surfaces.

Q: What is difference between CemBond and FlexBond?
A: The difference between CemBond and FlexBond is the type of polymers used to manufacture them. FlexBond is not UV stable and one of the limitations of CemBond is that it tends to leave white streaking in final coats. CemBond should not be used on floors or water containing structures.
