Technical information
Supplied in a pack comprising: 12 kg of UltraCrete SURFACE DEFECT REPAIR thermoplastic pellets and 1 kg of anti-skid aggegrate, each packed separately. This system is suitable for defects from 5-40mm wide with a maximum depth of 45mm. When used for shallow surface repairs the maximum size should be 200 x 200mm x 15mm depth. Once installed it has a skid resistance value of 60 (SRV). Download the technical datasheet (pdf)How to apply Ultracrete Surface Defect Repair
If Surface Defect Repair is compacted, the bags can be lightly massaged or rolled on the ground in order to separate the chips/pellets.- Fill in a layer of Surface Defect Repair to a maximum depth of 10mm and heat the material on a medium to high heat until completely molten and in a fluid like state.
- The material will follow the contours of the space.
- Some discolouration and smoking of the material may occur. Keep the flame at a distance of 20-40cm to the surface of the material.
- If the depth of the cavity exceeds 10mm, further layers of 10mm maximum can be added and heated as per instruction.
- Make sure all materials are in a liquid state and that all gaps have been filled.
- Continue to add layers (max 10mm) until the cavity is filled.
- To provide initial skid resistance and to avoid ghost marking, post sprinkle with a small quantity of aggregate, whilst the Surface Defect Repair remains hot and soft.
- Once cool, check with a gloved hand, that the surface is firm before opening up the road to the traffic.
- Also check that the anti-skid aggregate is firmly bonded to the material. If the aggregate remains loose, additional light heating will help bed the aggregate. Test to check adhesion of the aggregate.
- For accelerated cooling, water may be sprayed onto the surface.
- Re-opening of the road traffic can occur within 10-20 mintues, depending on depth/air temperature.

Ultracrete Surface Defect Repair
Need to stop a small defect becoming a much larger pothole? Surface Defect Repair has been specifically designed to prevent the formation of potholes. It is largely used by contractors as a preventative repair material where early signs of potholes are spotted in roads and carriageways. For local authorities and private landlords with large carparks or sites it prevents the formation of hazardous potholes, which are costly to fix both in materials, time and any associated payouts from accidents to pedestrians or vehicles.
Ultracrete Surface Defect Repair is a granular thermoplastic, with an anti-skid dressing which can be applied to minor defects in the carriageway, where light patching is required to prevent larger potholes from forming. The product comes as a 12KG bag and 1KG bag of glass beads, which is heat applied and once set, it gives a durable, anti-skid repair.
Surface Defect Repair is not formulated for use on large scale repairs, which instead should be treated with cold lay asphalt such as Permanent Pothole Repair or Instant Road Repair.
