Mortar Bed
Miracote offers two mortar bed solutions that significantly improve adhesion to substrates, and enhance properties of concrete toppings, repair mortars and bond coats.
Miracote Mortar Bed 2000 is for contractors who value the consistency of a factor blend; demand the highest quality, and want to avoid the variables associated with in-field mixing.
Miracote Polymer is an economical liquid plasticizer for in-field mixing with on-hand sand and cement.
Miracote Mortar Bed 2000
WHERE TO USE:
•Mortar beds, render mortars, thin sets, terrazzo and stucco. •Concrete toppings, repair mortars, and bond coats. •Latex-modi ed overlays and general construction use. •Enhancement for oor slab underlayments.
