We are remodeling our house which has concrete walls inside and out. we will be doing a lot of chaneling for the installation of pipe and conduit. We want to patch and paint What is the best method and materials for smooth and strong patching? plaster bond then bondex? plaster bond then cement? other?
Thank you for your time and effort here, and God bless you!

I am quite surprised that there were no responses / advise on something so common as concrete patching.
Anyway, God bless!

The best thing that I have use for patching concrete is: A latex additive by Dap "Bonding Liquid". You can buy it at "Do It Best" Home Center or other home centers. The way I use it was mix some in water. Using a water brush apply mixture to concrete. Also mix it in the concrete patch mix.

but we like polymer'mod'd more,,, there're vertical grades you can buy which'll be much easier to apply & finish,,, as in all conc patching, prep's the key,,, call any const supply house & ask for vert/ovhd conc patch,,, they're all ' just add wtr ' anymore.

stay away from plaster.
