RIDGEBOND FLEXIBLE POINTING
We didn’t invent Flexible Pointing but we sure did improve it! Colourtile Flexible Pointing & Paint Pty Ltd manufacture Ridgebond, a flexible pointing formula that incorporates an all acrylic binder recommended for new roofs and roof refurbishment applications. Ridgebond was developed by roof tilers for roof tilers. This has ensured Ridgebond is the most user-friendly Flexible Pointing on the market.
The resin chosen for the system is based on a highly UV resistant pure acrylic technology, which has been an industry bench mark for adhesion and colour retention for over 25 years. Its durability and performance have been proven over many harsh Australian seasons. Whilst its cost is premium, it will always remain the choice because of its quality and consistency. Ridgebond has achieved an ease of trowel application and smooth fine finish whilst still maintaining its adhesion and flexibility. The level of binder (resin) used in this formulation has been chosen to provide excellent through film build for a sound quality finish. The resin has enhanced “wet adhesion” and excellent fast “through dry” properties. The product has proven itself in the area of dry hold down, especially in high wind areas such as Australia’s eastern seaboard.
Some key features of the Ridgebond unique formulation are:
• Higheset quality
• Fast hardness development
• Good water resistance
• Excellent resistance to water whitening (blanching)
• Excellent exterior durability
• Enhanced “wet adhesion” properties
• Solid Hold Down
• Very easy trowel application and fine finish
• Full colour range
Use Ridgebond on your next job and you will see the difference!
