Troubleshooting

Fibres appear to clump during mixing.

Ensure thorough mixing and consider pre-mixing the fibres with water or a small amount of the cement mix before adding the rest of the ingredients. Adjust mixing time as needed.

Cracking still occurs after use.

Check your mix ratio and ensure proper curing techniques are followed. While fibres reduce cracking, they are not a complete solution. Also, consider the substrate conditions and environmental factors.
