Repair major damage to bluestone

Repair major damage to bluestone

For invisibly repairing broken pieces or pits, use Akepox 5010, a 2-component epoxy glue.

Advantages of this product:

• Frost resistant
• UV stable
• Also adheres to slightly damp surfaces
• Stable, non-sloping, gel consistency. Can be used both horizontally and vertically.
• Transparent in color, if desired easy to color with the AKEPOX Color Pastes.
• Non-shrink curing

Method:

• Degrease the area to be repaired with Akemi Cleaner I or Cleaner P. With Cleaner P you can also remove uncured Akepox residues and the last veil of the epoxy.
  
• Akepox 5010 coloring with Color Paste for Akepox.
• You can make extra nice repairs by mixing +/- 70% stone powder of blue stone under the Akepox. If larger pieces are missing, it is best to add gravel from the stone itself. This way you get the same look & feel as the stone itself after sanding.
• Mix the 2 components in a 2 to 1 ratio, i.e. 2 parts component A to 1 part component B. You do this by making equal heaps or lines, each time 2 of component A and 1 component of B. Mix these well. each other so that you get a nice homogeneous mixture, which can be used for 20 minutes at 20°C. Heat speeds up and cold slows down the process. Do not use product below 5°C, as sufficient curing does not take place.
• After about 12 hours, the repair is cured and ready for further processing (drilling, sanding, polishing,…).
