Ensure the hole is clean, dry, and free from dust, oil and grease.
1
Remove product through the perforated backing card (always store unused product in the original packaging).
2
Cut a length of strip sufficient for the hole to be filled.
3
Remove the protective film from both sides of the cut strip.
4
Wearing suitable gloves, knead the strip until a uniform colour is obtained. Slight wetting with water improves workability.
5
Push product into hole until it is fully filled. A flat blade tool can be used for this. Remains workable for up to 4 minutes.
6
Remove excess material and ensure flush with the hole.
7
Centrally insert screw 1/2 way using light finger pressure to create a pilot hole. Leave screws in place to set for 1 hour.
8
Using a screwdriver carefully remove screw, position the fixture (e.g. bracket or shelf) and then fully tighten screw until flush with fixture (do not overtighten). Always follow manufacturers instructions for the fixture.
9
Do not use product for hanging objects over 20kg.
