Duramortar 500

Optima Coatings Duramortar 500 is a single component acrylic polymer modified repair mortar for use as a “fairing coat” or cosmetic mortar. Duramortar 500 can be mixed with water to form a fine grey trowellable mortar which can be used to fill in pores, blowholes and blemishes on a concrete surface. Duramortar 500 can also be used as a ‘skim’ coat prior to the application of protective coatings. Duramortar 500 is specially formulated to produce a shrinkage compensating mortar with no cracking when applied in a thin section.
