HINTS
A) Once the SOLAREZ has gelled, about 30 - 45 seconds after exposure to sunlight, you may remove it from the sun and very carefully peel off the plastic wrap. Now it is extremely easy to sand and shape or razor-cut the semi-solid resin.
B) When sunlight hits SOLAREZ causing it to harden, chemical heat is produced. If the depth of your repair is over 1/8", or the sun that day is particularly intense like in the tropics, you may want to intermittently shade the SOLAREZ to reduce heat buildup - especially if your repair materials are sensitive to excessive heat.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
IMPORTANT - Repair site should be clean, dry and free of any oil grease or waxes. It is strongly recommended to prepare the repair site by lightly sanding and wiping clean with a solvent such as rubbing alcohol.1) IN A SHADED AREA, squeeze out only enough SOLAREZ to fill the damage area, not more than 1/3" deep at a time. Replace cap on the tube.
2) Cover the repair site with a piece of smooth, clear plastic wrap. This will keep your fingers clean, allow you to shape and contour the SOLAREZ and it will give the repair a gloss finish when you're done. With plastic in place, work SOLAREZ into the damaged area and work out any bubbles. You'll have ample time to work, SOLAREZ will not harden until sunlight hits it.
3) When the liquid SOLAREZ is finally positioned exactly how you'd like it to be, EXPOSE IT TO SUNLIGHT. You may continue to hold the plastic wrap in place or even stretch it slightly to assure a smooth contour. It won't take long until the resin gels - only about 30 seconds in good sunlight. Once it has gelled, you may let go of the plastic. Allow the SOLAREZ to be exposed to direct sun for at least 3 - 5 minutes more. (depending on the sun's intensity, it may take up to 30 minutes to cure)
4) Carefully remove the plastic wrap to reveal a glossy, hard, durable finish. You may want to lightly sand offany rough edges.
