Preparation
- The exposed reinforcing was carefully cut back with a sharp knife to remove any damaged material.
- The surrounding rubber was then abraded using the UPS MINI-BLASTER, creating a rough textured finish that would ensure optimal adhesion of the repair material.
Priming
- The repair area was primed using UPS 366 P PRIMER. This primer was allowed to cure for one hour, preparing the surface for the application of the rubber repair compound.
