Specpatch 30 General Purpose Polymer-Modified Concrete Repair Mortar
SpecPatch 30 is a general-purpose polymer-modified concrete repair mortar designed for repairing concrete floors, walls, precast concrete, tilt-up panels, sidewalks, curbs, masonry surfaces, and structural concrete. This one-component repair material requires only the addition of water and delivers durable, long-lasting repairs for horizontal, vertical, and overhead applications. It can be feather-edged, shaved, sanded, and shaped to blend with surrounding concrete surfaces.
The extended working time of SpecPatch 30 makes it ideal for larger repairs where contractors need additional placement and finishing time while still achieving rapid strength development.
Key Features & Benefits
Extended Working Time
Provides approximately 30–40 minutes of initial set time, allowing more working time than ultra-fast repair mortars while still enabling rapid project completion.
One-Component Formula
Simply add clean water and mix. No additional components are required for standard installations.
Can Be Feather-Edged & Shaped
Can be feather-edged, shaved, molded, and sanded after placement for seamless repairs.
Excellent Durability & Adhesion
Provides strong adhesion to prepared concrete substrates while maintaining long-term durability in demanding service environments.
Interior & Exterior Applications
Designed for both indoor and outdoor repairs including freeze-thaw environments and exposed conditions.
Natural Concrete Gray Finish
Dries to a natural concrete gray color that blends well with existing concrete surfaces.
Common Applications
Sidewalk & Curb Repairs
Ideal for repairing deteriorated sidewalks, curbs, ramps, and pedestrian pathways.
Concrete Floor Repairs
Used to repair spalls, chips, damaged sections, and surface defects in industrial and commercial concrete floors.
Precast Concrete Restoration
Excellent for repairing precast panels, architectural concrete, and manufactured concrete products.
Tilt-Up Wall Repairs
Commonly used for repairing tilt-up wall panels and vertical concrete structures.
Concrete Pipe & Utility Structures
Suitable for repairing concrete pipe systems, drainage structures, and municipal infrastructure.
Masonry Surface Repairs
Can be used on masonry and concrete substrates where durable patching is required.
Recommended Surfaces
SpecPatch 30 is designed for use on:
- Concrete floors
- Concrete walls
- Sidewalks
- Curbs
- Parking structures
- Precast concrete
- Tilt-up panels
- Concrete pipe
- Masonry surfaces
- Structural concrete
Application Instructions
Surface Preparation
For maximum durability:
- Remove oil, grease, dust, laitance, and contaminants.
- Saw cut repair perimeter where appropriate.
- Mechanically prepare substrate to a minimum CSP 5 profile.
- Bring substrate to Saturated Surface Dry (SSD) condition before placement.
Priming
For enhanced performance:
- Coat exposed reinforcing steel with SpecPrep SB.
- Prime SSD concrete with SpecPrep SB or apply a scrub coat of mixed repair mortar before placement.
Mixing
Mix each 50 lb bag with:
- 6.75–7.25 pints of clean water
Mix thoroughly using a low-speed drill for 2–3 minutes until homogeneous.
Placement
- Trowel firmly into repair area.
- Ensure intimate contact with substrate.
- Slightly overfill repair.
- Shape during placement.
- After initial set, shave to final profile with a steel trowel.
Deep Repair Applications
For repairs deeper than 3/4 inch:
- Extend with clean 3/8" SSD pea gravel.
- Add up to 50% aggregate by weight.
- Mix an additional 2 minutes.
This creates a repair more closely matched to the thermal properties of surrounding concrete.
Coverage & Yield
Yield Per Bag
- Approximately 0.43 cubic feet per 50 lb bag.
Repair Thickness
- Feather edge to 1 inch per lift
- Up to 2 inches in isolated areas
- Additional lifts may be applied after initial set
