Finishing Instructions 1 Fiberglass 1 <br />Underground Storage <br />to <br />This fiberglass finishing kit provides materials to cover unused tank openings and extemal attachments. By following <br />these "Finishing Instructions" you will ensure the proper sealing and corrosion protection for your new fiberglass coated <br />underground storage tank. <br />1.0 Fiberglass finishing kit contains the following materials: <br />Bottle of catalyst 1 or more containers of resin <br />Preformed lifting lug covers Tube of silicon caulk for lug cover <br />Fiberglass mat attachment <br />(Note: For tanks supplied with removable "screw-in" lifting lugs no lug covers or silicon sealant will be fumished. <br />Installer is required to Oug or pipe up ttese openings as described in installation instructions.) <br />2.0 Surface preparation: Soled the areas where fiberglass laminate will be applied. Using sandpaper, rough up that <br />area to prepare surface for proper bonding of the fiberglass laminate. <br />3.0 Resin preparation: Prior to mbdng the resin and catalyst together, locate and place all the items needed <br />near the location where you are going to ineW them. Niue the resin and catalyst together and <br />completely saturate the matting. Remember, after mbdng a batch of resin and catalyst together, you <br />have approximately, 10 minutes to work with mature before it starts to 'Gel" than harden and cure out. <br />(This working time is based on 70 F temperature. If air temperature is 100 F. than working time is <br />approximately 5 minutes before resin mbMres "Gels' then hardens and cures out) <br />4.0 Resin and catalyst moving: When mbdng the resin and catalyst together, mix only the amount you can apply in <br />the allotted time. Use the folbvring mixing chart for the various batch sizes. if you are unfaniliar with resins, <br />than mix the smallest batch as a sample to determine the required curing time for the resin to 'Gel! <br />R <br />2 qts. <br />1 oz. <br />1 qts. <br />1/2 oz. <br />1 pt. <br />1/4 oz. <br />1 cup <br />1/8 oz. <br />6.0 Resin Application: When applying the resin mixture to the MATTING <br />matting, saturate or Impragnate the matting by dabbing the <br />resin into the material. Do not brush the resin on the matting <br />because it will not saturate the matting property. <br />DAB RESIN T4 <br />INPREGNATE MAT <br />/ I2 <br />
