New UZIN NC 880: there is no faster repair
Ulm, 12th. January 2008

From now on, floorlayers and interior decorators on site can really speed things up when fast repairs are needed before installing new floor coverings. Uzin has brought to the market a repair compound in powder form that – mixed with water – can be used for fine smoothing and filling work in record time. In any floor covering work, the compound is ready for covering after 30 minutes. This includes surface coverings such as, for example, rubber, linoleum or PVC. UZIN NC 880 is, therefore, the fastest repair compound on the market today.

The market has wanted a product with these technical advantages for many years. With the valuable aid, NC 880, Uzin has now realised the wishes of all floor-layers and interior decorators.
The "express compound" is extremely fine and, therefore, can be used as a spotting compound or, in small areas, as a low-slump smoothing compound with a finely sealed surface finish from a "feather edge" up to a maximum of four millimetre thickness. In application, no primer is required.

Need for Speed – now on site with NC 880!
Chemical conversion of moisture makes NC 880 extremely rapid-setting and rapid-drying and gives it a very high surface strength – in plain language, that means it is ready for covering after a record 30 minutes. Due to its smooth consistency it is also easy to apply and even trowel-marks cannot be seen. The surface has a distinctive finish. Another key advantage: in its practical five kilogramme plastic drum, this speedy-repair can be taken anywhere without powder from an open container making the tradesman’s car dirty.

Use without speed restrictions
The fine and very smooth NC 880 repair compound is a great advantage where trowel-marks have to be smoothed out or where defects in old or new cement compounds have to be made good in almost no time at all. It is ideal for filling small holes, defects or areas of damage. It is also suitable for skimming over subfloor joints or for repairs to screeds and existing floor constructions. Specific example: the surface has already been prepared with a levelling compound. On a chipboard subfloor, however, there are three places in the area where the self-levelling compound has flowed away through the joint.

But, the floor-layer has to lay and bond the flooring. NC 880 is on hand and repairs the minor damage in minutes and without lengthy waiting-time or down-time. The repair compound is also called for where, for example, joints have to be skimmed on a floating chipboard floor without the need for an all-over smoothing coat.
The list of uses also includes full area smoothing work up to four millimetre thickness. And NC 880 is also ideal for smoothing on steps in staircases: the new covering can be bonded without time-loss and solvent-free using the dispersion pressure contact adhesive UZIN DK 700.
With NC 880, floor-layers and interior decorators can get going on site with no speed restrictions.

Multipurpose use: a speedy little helper
UZIN NC 880 has a wide range of uses: it is suitable for use on new or old cement-based compounds, existing surfaces with well-bonded, waterproof residues of adhesives and levelling compounds or also, for example, on dense, mineral surfaces and on tiling and natural stone. Also, the range of uses include dry screed materials, chipboard and OSB-boards as well as all standard types of screed, concrete or other substrates.
