Best Practices for 3M Industrial Sealant 800
-
Surface Preparation
Best results are obtained on clean, dry surfaces. Oil, grease and other contaminants may be removed by wiping with solvent such as 3M™ Scotch-GripTM Solvent No. 3 (methyl ethyl ketone).
*Note: When using solvents, extinguish all ignition sources and be sure to follow the manufacturer’s precautions and directions for use when handling such materials.
-
Application
Production dispensing is best achieved with pressure flow equipment. A minimum 5:1 ratio pump with follower plate is suitable. A hand caulking gun or brush may also be used.
-
Curing
Surface dries tack free in approximately 5 minutes after application. Complete drying, depending upon temperature and air movement, is obtained in approximately 1-3 days.
-
Clean-Up
Equipment and excess sealer may be cleaned with a solvent such as Scotch-Grip Solvent No. 3 (methyl ethyl ketone).
*Note: When using solvents, extinguish all ignition sources and be sure to follow the manufacturer’s precautions and directions for use when handling such materials.
