Granville Petro Patch Putty is a hand kneadable, non-rusting, steel reinforced epoxy putty that mixes in one minute to provide a fast permanent repair to items made of ferrous metals and aluminium. Granville Petro Patch Putty is supplied in a handy rod form with the curing agent encapsulated in the contrasting colour base material. Its putty-like consistency eliminates drips and runs providing a 'no mess' application with no tools required for use. Granville Petro Patch Putty dries to a dark grey colour which can be overpainted if required.

Granville Petro Patch Putty can be used to repair leaks, cracks etc. in petrol and diesel tanks, water tanks etc. Petro Patch Putty can also be used to repair pipes, tools, equipment and to repair cracked castings etc

Directions for use:

In order to obtain optimum adhesion, surfaces to be repaired should be free of grease, oil and dirt. Scuffing or abrading the surface prior to cleaning will help to ensure a good bond.

Twist or cut off the required amount of putty and mix by kneading with the fingers until a uniform colour is obtained. If mixing is difficult warm the putty to room temperature or slightly above. Apply to the surface to be repaired within 2 minutes of mixing. The mixed epoxy putty does not exhibit good bond strength at this point, but appears to be merely on the surface. Force into any cracks or fissures etc. then strike off excess material preferably with a tool wetted with clean water.

When applying to damp or slowly leaking areas, work material forcefully into the surface and apply pressure until adhesion begins to take effect.

For a smooth appearance of the cured compound hand rub with water or a damp cloth prior to hardening and remove excess material before hardening begins. After 5 - 10 minutes the epoxy will begin to harden and form a bond to the surface. After 30 minutes Petro Patch Putty will be completely hardened and can be drilled, sanded and/or painted.
