The effectiveness of decontamination and soundness of the substrate should then be assessed by a pull, Off test. Mixed. The activator and base components should be stirred separately before mixing to disperse any settlement. The entire mixing any steel reinforcement and formwork should cut to, Be prepared size and made, And shape ready for assembly before mixing commences. Care should be taken to guarantee that nitobond ep is thoroughly mixed. The hardener and base components should be stirred separately before mixing to disperse any settlement. The entire contents of the hardener tin should then be poured into the base tin and the two materials thoroughly mixed using a suitable slow, Speed heavy duty drill and mixing paddle for 2 minutes until a fully uniform colour is obtained.
