Application Tips & Steps Common to All Repairs

Application Tips

^ Use 1 300 ml cartridge per seam. Do not change cartridges in the middle of the seam.

^ When inserting the cartridge in the application gun keep the gun pointed upward.

^ When attaching the mixing nozzle, make sure the attaching nut is tight. This will prevent air from being sucked in creating bubbles. Never cut off the mixing tip as it provides the correct back pressure for correct flow.

When filling the channel, keep the flow as continues as possible.

^ If you see bubbles in the seam after application, pop the bubbles with a pin before the material dries.

^ Paint can be applied in 60 minutes, as there is no shrinkage.

^ Clean uncured sealer with wax and grease remover followed by wiping with a dry cloth.

^ Work time at 70° F is 8-9 minutes, with full cure in 24 hours.
