1Injecting Sealant and Air
When making a temporary repair, carefully read the
handling manual provided with the kit.
In cold temperatures, the sealant may not flow easily.
In this situation, warm it up for five minutes before
using.
The sealant is latex based and can permanently stain
clothing and other materials. Be careful during
handling and wipe up any spills immediately.
