Directions for use:
1. Remove all previous material from mating surfaces.
2. For best results, clean and prep the area with an oil-free solvent.
3. Remove cap. Coat with a brush-top applicator.
4. When used as a gasket dressing, spread product with a spatula to a uniform film on one side of the gasket and then position it on the assembly. Coat the second side of the gasket and re-assemble. Slower drying formula increases work time.
5. Assembly is operational after 4 hours, full cure is effective after 24 hours.
6. The product can be removed from metal surfaces with isopropyl alcohol. If the sealant has been dried for a long time or at high temperatures, cover the sealant with alcohol and allow it to soften overnight.
