Quality blend of cement, sand and aggregate.

Great for small jobs.

Convenient & easy to use.

 

How to mix: 

If using a concrete mixer, add water (1.75 litres of clean water per bag of Concrete Mix) to the mixing vessel. Empty the Concrete Mix blend slowly into the water and mix thoroughly. Only if absolutely needed, add small amounts of additional water (in increments of ~100ml) to achieve a workable mix. Too much water ruins good concrete.

 

OR if using a wheelbarrow, place Concrete Mix in the barrow, create a hollow and add 1.75 litres of water per bag and mix. Only if absolutely needed, add small amounts of additional water (in increments of ~100ml) to achieve a

workable mix. Too much water ruins good concrete.

 

TIP: The mix should not be too stiff or too sloppy.  Wet concrete should hold its shape when it is squeezed in a gloved hand.

 

How to use: 

Place the well mixed concrete in the formwork filling all corners, and compact. Level the concrete with a straight edge and finish the top surface with a wooden float or steel trowel. Keep the surface moist for 7 days to achieve maximum strength. Formwork may be removed after 24 hours. Don't walk on the concrete for at least 3 days after placing.
