Resolució de problemes

Si teniu problemes durant o després de l'aplicació, tingueu en compte el següent:

  • Fuga: Ensure surfaces were thoroughly cleaned and dried before application. Verify that a continuous bead was applied and that parts were assembled while the silicone was still wet. Allow the full 24-hour cure time before exposing to fluids or service.
  • Mala adherència: Surface preparation is critical. Ensure all oil, grease, and old gasket material are removed. The sealant may not adhere properly to contaminated surfaces.
  • Problemes de curació: Ensure the product was stored correctly and is within its shelf life. Proper ventilation during curing is also important.
