Flexural Strength ASTM D 790/7 days	15,000 psi
Shear Strength (tensile: steel to steel) ASTM D 1002	2,400 psi

SURFACE PREPARATION:

All surfaces to be repaired must be clean of dirt, grease and oil. For best results, remove contamination with abrasive blasting and non-flammable cleaner/degreaser, making sure all dust is removed.

MIXING:

Mix entire contents of the base and activator or measure accurately (2) parts of base and (1) part of activator, by volume, and mix with spatula thoroughly to produce a streak-free material. Scrape frequently to insure complete mixing.

APPLICATION:

Apply by spatula or applicator. Material should be worked into the profile of the surface to achieve maximum adhesion. Material can be heat-cured for one (1) hour at 200° F to achieve ultimate properties.
