Notes

Cured silicone elastomer and sealant 

Use neat as supplied. The best method is to apply with a trowel. If using a roller or brush do not use ones made of nylon. Important: In all cases water must not be added to the Gel or be present on the surface to be cleaned as this will stop the Gel working. Mix Gel thoroughly before use as a little separation can occur. Remove heavy accumulations of silicone using physical methods if possible. This could save time and cut down on the amount of gel being used. Surface must be dry. 

Apply Gel to produce a 3 mm to 6.5 mm layer over the stain or residue to be removed. Allow to dwell for up to 2 hours or until residue softens, “lifts” or shows signs of dissolving. Do not allow to dry apply more Gel if required to keep the layer 

wet. Remove Gel and residues using pressure water rinsing equipment. Warm water gives best results. Wash with 10% DiAqua® Where such equipment cannot be used, brush the treated surface vigorously with a stiff bristle brush and rinse with cold or warm water. Wash with a 10% solution of DiAqua® and rinse with clean water.
