Handling & Safety
Surface Preparation:
* Clean the surface thoroughly to remove oil, grease, and dirt.
* Grit blast or abrade the surface to create a profile for better adhesion.
* For metals exposed to saltwater, perform a chloride contamination test to ensure proper cleaning.
Mixing Instructions:
* Combine resin and hardener according to the specified mix ratio.
* Mix thoroughly until a uniform, streak-free consistency is achieved.
Application:
* Apply the mixed putty to the prepared surface, pressing firmly to ensure maximum contact.
* For large gaps or holes, use fiberglass, sheet metal, or wire mesh as reinforcement.
Curing:
* Allow the putty to cure for 16 hours at room temperature before machining or painting.
Safety Precautions:
* Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves and eye protection.
* Ensure adequate ventilation during application.
* Avoid contact with skin and eyes; in case of contact, rinse thoroughly with water.
* Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed information.
