When using Quick Setting cement should I use a Masonry bonding agent in place of water to enhance adhesion?

The surface to be repaired should be free of all foreign matter and loose materials. The bond will be enhanced if all smooth surfaces are roughened or etched. Bonding can be further enhanced if QUIKRET® Concrete Acrylic Fortifier (No. 8610) or QUIKRETE® Concrete Bonding Adhesive (No. 9902) are utilized. If the application thickness is less than 1 in (25 mm) then QUIKRETE® Concrete Acrylic Fortifier should be used with QUIKRETER® Quick-Setting Cement. Prior to application of the material the repair area should be wet, without standing water. If the application is greater than 1 in (25 mm) in thickness, then QUIKRETE® Concrete Bonding Adhesive should be utilized. When using the QUIKRETE® Concrete Bonding Adhesive, the step of wetting the repair area prior to the application of the QUIKRETE® Quick-Setting Cement, should not be done.
