Application Instructions For Both Resin Types:

Directions for use:
SR 150 and SR 250 have syringe caps that twist on and off for multiple uses of resin..
The product is light sensitive and exposure to daylight will initiate curing process. When cured in an open-air (oxygen) environment, a slightly tacky surface will result. Use of applicator tabs are recommended for applications that prefer a tack-free surface. A light sanding with 150 grit sandpaper is recommended prior to application of the resin. For optimal adhesion, the surface should be clean of dust and dirt. An important consideration is the resin will cure on command only if the appropriate light reaches the resin.

1. Relieve pressure on pipe with hole.
2. Clean/roughen area with 150 grit sandpaper.
3. Cut applicator tab to desired size and apply resin to applicator tab.
4. Using applicator tab, apply gentle pressure.
5. Shine S77 Curing Light directly on the applicator tab/resin for 30 seconds or until fully cured.
6. Remove applicator tab. Note that resin covers an area larger than the actual hole.

For larger holes (1/4' or greater) use of fiberglass mesh is recommended. Lay fiberglass mesh on applicator tab. Apply resin to mesh material so it is fully moist. Follow steps 4& 5 from above. Apply a second coat of resin on top of mesh to insure a strong repair. Sand off any fiberglass strands. Do not pull.
