RUBBERGRADE 6 REMOULD

Instructions for use

Before proceeding, please read the following information application carefully to ensure that proper procedures are fully understood. RubberGrade 6 ReMould is a two component, solvent free, synthetic rubber repair compound. Areas of application : hoses, gaskets, rubber rollers, ducting, impellers, valves etc.

1. Surface preparation

Ensure there is no unmixed material caught in the corners of the pack. If there is, ease them out of the corners using the white plastic clip. Cut any corner and pour out the RubberGrade 6 ReMould onto the repair surface/s.

Heavy contamination due to oil or grease must be removed using a cleaner. Any areas of frayed or fragmented rubber should be cut away to provide a sound repair area. Rubber surfaces are best roughened using a stiff-bristled or stiff-wire brush. All surfaces MUST be dry. Edges of repair areas should be rebuilt. All loose dust particles must be removed and the surface wiped with a cleaner.

On certain repairs such as gaskets and castings where one surface is not required to bond to RubberGrade

6 ReMould, these surfaces should be

treated with release agent.
