Replace missing tiles from your pool
GENERAL:
Pratley Putty "Original formula" (Standard Setting) is a slightly water soluble (before it cures) hand moldable high performance putty-like adhesive. It is ideal for use under water but can also be used for filling sealing, building up and bonding almost any rigid material.
PROPERTIES:
1. Sets underwater.
2. Can be smoothed and shaped with a wet finger or spatula.
3. Excellent adhesive strength.
4. Bonds well to most rigid materials.
5. Can be filed, sawn, drilled and machined.
6. Sets slowly - ideal for large jobs.
7. Very hard and abrasion resistant.
8. Sets ivory white.
9. Good shelf life.
SURFACE PREPARATION:
1. Surfaces to be bonded should be free from loose dirt, rust, paint, oil and grease.
2. Wire brushing or sanding will substantially enhance adhesion to smooth surfaces.
APPLICATION PROCEDURE:
1. With the wrappings intact, cut equal pieces from each stick.
2. Remove the wrappings and roll the pieces together to form a sausage.
3. Roll and knead the sausage into a ball.
4. Repeat steps (2) and (3) until an even colour is achieved with no streaks.
5. Wash stickiness from hands.
6. Wipe the putty several times firmly onto the application surfaces, so wetting them with resin.
7. Apply the putty working it firmly into place. Build up with further layers as necessary.
8. Remove all excess putty and wipe surrounding surfaces with a damp cloth.
9. Pratley Putty may be made to set smooth and shiny by stroking gently with wet fingers.
NOTE:
If using under water, mix first then quickly take mixed product under water in a plastic bag for further use.
