NOTICE:
- Mastic is made of a combustible material and should be removed prior to carrying out welding procedures to the area. Heat zones from welding near mastic may cause the mastic material to burn.
- Corrosion protection must be restored to the area after the mastic material is applied. Corrosion protection products may be wax based and loss of adhesion may occur if applied prior to mastic installation.
