AquaGrade Rebuild is a two component, solvent free, wet surface
and underwater repair compound. Areas of application : bonding,
fastening and filling in underwater applications e.g pipes, pumps, valves,
tanks etc.
AquaGrade Rebuild is designed to be mixed, applied and set on wet
surfaces or underwater in both fresh and salt water.
1. Surface preparation
Heavy contamination due to oil or grease must be removed using a
cleaner. Where possible, abrasive blasting is the preferred surface
preparation, especially in fluid flow repairs.
A Remove all contamination oil, grease and dirt with a cleaner.
B Remove all loose rust and surface coatings.
C Roughen the surface, preferably with abrasive blasting to SA.
Alternatively a die grinder, needle scaler or angle grinder may be used.
If grinding make sure the surface is roughened, not polished. Where
grinding or needle gunning is used, the surface should be cross scored to
improve adhesion.
2. Mixing
Transfer the contents of Base and Activator containers from the
respective jars into the mixing container provided. Mix in the raio
indicated. Lids should be replaced immediately after use. The two
components should be thoroughly mixed until completely streak free and
a uniform colour is achieved, using the spatula provided.
3. Application
Using the spatula provided the mixed material should be spread evenly
onto the prepared area, working the material into any cracks and surface

defect. Apply on wet surfaces or underwater in the same manner as
above water.
4. Machining Once the AquaGrade Rebuild has
cured for the minimum time indicated in the Curing Properties Section of the
product specification sheet, sanding and grinding can be carried out using
standard engineering practices.
5. Cleaning
All equipment should be cleaned IMMEDIATELY after each use with
a cleaner. Failure to follow this procedure will result in application
equipment becoming unusable.
