SURFACE PREPARATION:
1. Clean surface. Remove all dirt, oil, grease and wax with a cleaning solvent like Wax & Grease Remover.
2. Make sure surface is dry before repairing.
3. Use 40-80 grit disc to featheredge paint for good mechanical adhesion.

MIXING DIRECTIONS:
For best results, bring filler and provided hardener to room temperature (minimum temperature 75°F). Stir product before dispensing with a bottom to top motion. Knead hardener tube before use. Place a 4" diameter puddle of filler on a clean mixing surface (we recommend a non-absorbent plastic mixing board) and add a ribbon of cream hardener from edge to edge across the center of the filler puddle (puddles larger than 4" will require additional hardener); or measure hardener at 2% by weight of filler – a 50 to 1 ratio. Mix thoroughly with a plastic spreader, using a folding motion, until uniform color is achieved. At room temperature (75°F) approximate setting time is 3 – 5 minutes.

APPLICATION DIRECTIONS:
1. Using a plastic spreader, apply a thin layer of filler to surface, using firm pressure for maximum adhesion.
2. Apply additional layers, if necessary, building up damaged area higher than surrounding metal surface to allow for sanding of filler.
3. IMPORTANT! DO NOT RETURN UNUSED MIXTURE TO CAN AS IT WILL HARDEN THE REMAINING CONTENTS.

FINISHING:
1. When material has cured, in approximately 15 minutes, sand with a 80-120 grit sandpaper.
2. Finish sand with 180-240 grit.

TOPCOATING:
May be topcoated with polyester, 2K urethane or 1K primer. Refer to paint manufacturer’s instructions for topcoat application.

HEALTH & SAFETY:
Read all warnings, first aid and safety for all components before using. Keep out of reach of children and animals. Protect hands with impervious rubber gloves. Wear face, skin and eye protection. When sanding, we recommend the use of a respiratory covering device to protect from dust (MSA mask P/N 459029 with MSA cartridge 464029 or equivalent).
