FROM OIL EQUIPMENT PHONE NO. : 209 7545726 Nov. 21 2001 10:36AM P8 WESTERN FIBERGLASS 1-800-688-3375 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR DMA DOOR 1.Pre-Bonding Surface Preparation Use disc sander with medium to heavy grit sand paper,to scuff up all seam areas a minimum of 2"each side of the point where the components join.It is very important that this be DONS fully,as the bonding materials will not adhere to any surface which has not been sanded.BE SURE TO WEAR A DUST MASW 2. Seam Laminations Use one plastic bucket with acetone to clean roller,brushes and squeegee.Return tools to this bucket between use to prevent bonding materials from drying n them.BE SURE TO SHAKE THE ACETONE OUT OF TOOLS BEFORE RE-USE. ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES WHEN HANDLING FIBERGLASS BONDING MATERIALS. Lay out fiberglass materials at each seam to be bonded(two pieces per seam) Mix one(1)pint resin and one half ping(1/2)putty material per door in a large bucket at a time,for ease of handling.Hardener ration at 70 degrees F.and 30%humidity is two(2)ounces per gallon for resin and one (1)ounce for putty.This will vary with temperature and direct sunlight. If used in direct sunlight or in temperatures above 80 degrees,reduce hardener as per instructions from supervisor or Western Fiberglas, • Inc.personnel. Mix thoroughly,scraping the sides of the buckets with the stir stick. Use squeegee or brush,and apply putty liberally to area of first seam,being sure to completely cover all fasteners,if used and fill all gaps.The putty will provide a smooth transition for the fiberglass material to cover.The Eberglass material does not like to make 90 degree turns,this is why we use the putty to create a Smooth surface with no sharp turns for the fiberglass.Lay first piece of fiberglass material across seam area evenly. Wet out or soak,with brush,liquid resin over fiberglass cloth material completely,material will o clear when fully saturated.Use pig bristle roller tool to"roll-out"air bubbles gently,so as not to displace putty. Remove all bubbles.Apply second layer of material in same manner.Your laminate should appear clear, with no air bubbles or pockets in view and all fasteners covered. If additional resin is required,use only resin from Western Fiberglass,Inc.The Resin used in construction of all Western Fiberglass,Inc.components is corrosion resistant resin,made from use in fuel and chemical applications. 4. Test Procedures Atter the door bond is completed,you may test the integrity of your seal.This is important to insure that the door will not allow any contained fluid to leak.Check local regulations for required testing procedures. A common test procedure is to fill the sump with water after the door bond has completely cured usually overnight,and observe bond seam for any teaks.
