Steel Putty Application Hints and Tips
 |
When applying to damp, wet or slowly leaking areas, work the mixed epoxy putty forcefully into the surface and apply pressure until adhesion begins to take effect |
 |
Use damp fingers for easier mixing, application and a smooth cured appearance. Remove excess material before hardening begins. |
 |
Curing: Steel Putty has a 4-7 minute work life. After 5-10 minutes it hardens and forms a tenacious bond. Final cure occurs in 60 minutes. |
