Everbuild 203 Accelerator & Frostproofer – 25 Litre

Uses

The 203 Accelerator & Frostproofer by Everbuild is a practical, high-quality product that improves the curing times of concrete, mortar, renders or screed. It's formulated by the Everbuild technicians to enhance its defence against frost, increasing its resilience to withstand up to -8°C. This enables a sub-zero temperature setting, something many other manufacturers' products cannot achieve; if applied in normal ambient temperatures, the enhanced curing times aid in rapid repairs.
