Fast-Setting, Polymer-Modified,
Cement-Based Patching
Compound
DESCRIPTION
Planipatch is an ultra fast-drying, self-curing, polymer-modified, cement-based
patching compound that rapidly develops high compressive strength. When
Planipatch is mixed with Planipatch Plus, the Planipatch Plus System can be
used as an embossing leveler or as a patch to fill voids over properly prepared
vinyl sheet goods, vinyl composition tile (VCT) and cement terrazzo before the
direct glue-down installation of floor coverings.
