GLUING: First, add an appropriate amount of hardener (5% to 10% of total volume) to the mixing cup and stir until fully mixed. Then use 100% bristle brush from the kit (cut bristles to 1/2"), apply the first thin coat of glue to the patch and the surface to be glued. Let it dry 10 minutes maximum. Apply a second thin coat of glue. Let it dry another 10 minutes maximum. After the second coat of glue, use the heat gun to heat the patch and the surface to be glued (40 to 80 degrees C). Apply the patch to the surface when still hot/warm. Use the roller from the kit. Firmly roll over the surface that has been glued.

OPEN TIME: 40 minutes to 1-hour maximum according to the room temperature and relative humidity. Humidity should not exist at 50%.
