The Hidden Costs of Two-Component Systems
Every contractor knows the drill: mix Part A with Part B, hope you got the ratio right, race against the clock before it kicks off, and pray you don't have expensive waste at the end of the day.
What if there was a better way?
After 15 years of dealing with mixing headaches, waste, and rushed applications, I've found it: NeoFlex single-component technology.
The Mixing Problem
Two-component systems create expensive problems:
Mixing Errors Cost Money
- Wrong ratios: Entire batch ruined, $200+ down the drain
- Incomplete mixing: Soft spots, callbacks, reputation damage
- Weather sensitivity: Humidity and temperature affect cure
- Training issues: New employees make expensive mistakes
Waste Adds Up
- Leftover mixed material: Can't save it, must throw it away
- Pot life pressure: Rush to use material before it kicks
- Over-mixing: Make too much to avoid running short
- Clean-up costs: Mixing equipment, buckets, paddles
Time Pressure
- Limited working time: 20-30 minutes before material thickens
- Rushed application: Quality suffers under time pressure
- Multiple batches: Stop work to mix more material
- Crew coordination: Everyone must work at mixing pace
The NeoFlex Breakthrough
This is exactly why NeoFlex changes everything for contractors who want to work smarter:
