Method of Application

1. Surface preparation:

Grind the substrate with a wire brush or other suitable equipment, and remove dust and friable particles. Clean the surface with a vacuum. Ensure that the surface is free of contaminants like oil, grease, etc.

2. Priming:

Insert a fitting backer rod to the required depth. The diameter of the backer rods should be 20 –30% larger than the joint width. Use a blunt tool to insert the backer rod, taking care that the backer rod is not damaged.

3. Backer rod installation:

  • Sealant application
  • Fill the joint with sealant, avoiding air entrapment. Remove the excess material and clean the soiled floor

4. Sealant application:

Clean all tools and application equipment with thinner PUT502 immediately after use. Hardened and/or cured material can only be removed mechanically.

5. Cleaning of tools:

Chemseal EJ Resin and Hardener are available in pre pre-measured kit

6. Packing:

Store in a dry and covered shed between 20 °C to 30 °C away from sources of heat and naked flame.

7. Storage conditions:

Keep the containers tightly sealed when not in use. Avoid skin contact and inhalation of fumes (if any). While spraying, it is advised to wear a mask. If it comes in contact with the body, wash affected parts with plenty of water. In case of persistent irritation, contact a physician.
