|
| CONSTRUCTION & BUILDING REPAIRS: |
| |
| METALFIX may be used for a large
number of applications including rusted beams, columns, windows and door lintels,
etc. Enormous savings on sand blasting can be made by painting items with METALFIX,
after which they can be transported to site and top coated later.
Rusted roofs are a perfect example of a problem that METALFIX can solve. Any small
holes are sealed by the paint, and the etching action of METALFIX means that it
bonds onto galvanized surfaces with no problems. |
|
|
|
| REPAIR OF RUSTED HOLES : |
| |
|
| 1. Wire brush the surface to remove loose material
and wash away any dirt and dust. |
|
|
|
| 2. Cut a patch of glass matting large enough
to overlap the holes. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| 3. Brush METALFIX onto both
sides of the patch and also onto the surface itself. |
|
|
|
| 4. Allow the paint to become tacky and smooth
the patch into place. When dry apply a final coat of METALFIX
and top coat later if required. |
