4. Iestatīšana un sagatavošana

1. Virsmas sagatavošana: For optimal adhesion, ensure the repair surface is clean, free of loose debris, grease, oil, and rust. Lightly abrade smooth surfaces with sandpaper for better mechanical keying.
2. Individuālie aizsardzības līdzekļi: Always wear appropriate safety glasses and chemical-resistant gloves during handling and application.
3. Ventilācija: Work in a well-ventilated area to minimize exposure to vapors.

5. Lietošanas instrukcija (lietošana)

1. Cut and Knead: Cut off the required amount of epoxy stick. Remove the protective film. Knead the material thoroughly with your fingers until a uniform color is achieved (typically green). This ensures proper mixing of the two components.
2. Pieteikties: Firmly press the mixed epoxy onto the repair area. For holes or cracks, force the material into the void. For leaks, apply sufficient pressure to seal the area.
3. Shape and Smooth: Shape the epoxy as needed before it begins to harden. For a smoother finish, you can use a damp cloth or tool.
4. Sacietēšana: The epoxy will begin to set quickly, even underwater. Allow sufficient time for full cure before subjecting the repair to stress or water pressure. Refer to product packaging for specific set and cure times, as these can vary with temperature.

6. Apkope un uzglabāšana

• Uzglabāšana: Store the unused portion of the epoxy stick in its original packaging in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Instrumentu tīrīšana: Clean any tools used for application immediately with appropriate solvents before the epoxy hardens.
• Post-Application Care: Once cured, the epoxy forms a durable bond requiring no special maintenance.

7. Traucējummeklēšana

• Epoxy Not Hardening:
  • Ensure the two components were thoroughly kneaded until a uniform color was achieved. Incomplete mixing will prevent proper curing.
  • Verify that the ambient temperature is within the recommended range for curing. Curing may be slower in colder conditions.
• Slikta saķere:
  • Check if the surface was properly cleaned and free of contaminants (grease, oil, loose debris) before application.
  • Ensure the surface was adequately abraded if it was smooth.
