Mixing Guidelines
Poly-Vinex IND40 is easy to incorporate into standard cement mixes:
- Replace part or all of the mixing water with Poly-Vinex IND40
- Recommended dosage: 9–18 litres per 50 kg of cement
- Higher dosages are ideal for thin screeds requiring maximum performance
- Compatible with Portland cement, High Alumina cement, and fast-setting cements
Note: Latex-modified mixes may appear slightly darker. This can be adjusted by adding white cement if required.
