Use gloves; do not mix with bare hands. Cut required amount of material from stick. Remove clear plastic wrapper from cut section. To mix, first twist the material to produce a spiral pattern of resin and hardener. Next, knead material for 2 to 3 minutes or until a uniform color is achieved.
Firmly apply for patch, repair or bonding. For a smooth finish, wet a cloth or gloved finger with water and smooth.
