DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Surface preparation:
The substrate must be clean, sound and free of any surface contamination, such as oils, coatings, paints, dirt, etc. Leaking areas must be cut back to sound material, leaving an appropriate chase for receiving PENEPLUG®.

Mixing:
Setting time is dependent largely on the amount of mixing water used. Standard mixing ratio at 68°F (20°C) is 2.5 lb (1.1 kg) PENEPLUG® and approximately 1 cup (0.25 l) of water. Water must be added to PENEPLUG® and mixed quickly. The mix should have a dry pack (dry earth) consistency, holding a shape when squeezed in your hand but easily crumbled when pressed with fingers. Mixing time is about 15 seconds, with setting occurring about 30 seconds later. In cold weather, use lukewarm water. In higher temperatures, use cold water.

Application:
To avoid waste, only small quantities of PENEPLUG® should be mixed. After mixing, apply PENEPLUG® to the appropriate area immediately. Material should be formed into a wedge and forced into the leak. This can be accomplished with the use of a block of wood and hammer. Work the plug well into the area and then, applying as much pressure as possible, hold firmly in place for about 30 seconds or until set. After the leak has stopped, prime the area with a bond coat of PENETRON® and then fill the remaining void to the surface with PENECRETE MORTARTM. Remove excess material. After lightly pre-wetting, apply a final coat of PENETRON® to the repaired area.
In certain circumstances, PENEPLUG® may be applied as a dry powder. After preparing the surface as described above, place and hold the powder directly over the leak for 30-60 seconds.
