PREPARATION & APPLICATION
-
1
Clean and roughen: A clean surface, free of grease, loose rust and scale is required. Remove any grease, oil and petroleum products with a solvent wiping. After cleaning and degreasing, remove any loose scale and roughen surface by mechanical means.
-
2
Mix: Add all of the curing agent, (part B) into the resin container (part A), scrape sides and bottom of the container. Mix the resin and curing agent together until a smooth, uniform, streak free gray mixture is obtained. A pair of disposable rubber gloves and a plastic putty knife are supplied with each kit for mixing and applying.

NOTES
• It is important to feather the edges of Syntho-Steel Mastic for water tight seal.
• If multiple coats are to be used, roughen the surface in-between coats.
• Available from stock in 1 lb. and 4 lb. preweighed kits or can be special ordered in bulk containers.
