Q: Will MatCrete stick to plastic, rubber or gypsum plaster?
A: No.
Q: How soon after the MatCrete application can I place the fish or plant life back into the pond or dam?
A: If fish or plant life is to be put back into the pond, the water should be circulated through the necessary filters and UV lights for at least 7 to 10 days. Once this has been done, the water should be tested before fish or plants are introduced back into the water.
Q: Can I tile on top of a flat roof that I’ve waterproofed using MatCrete?
A: Yes. You could use a two-pack epoxy to bond and seal between cured MatCrete and other materials.
A: No.
