Preparation & Application

1.	Pinpoint origin of leak following standard leak detection procedures. Wipe clean before proceeding with repair.

2.	Clean and roughen using a wire brush or sand paper to remove excess rust, dirt or loose scale. Remove any oils, greases or foreign materials from pipe surface.

3.	Blend or knead putty until it is uniform in color. Maximum mixing time: 3 minutes. Minimum mixing temperature: 50°F.

4a.

For Pinholes up to 1/8": Place 1/2" ball of putty directly over the pinhole, pressing firmly into place. Do not use an excessive amount of putty or it could hinder the repair.

4b.

For Joints: Mold Trident-Seal™ Putty into a rope and place around entire circumference of the joint pressing firmly into place.

Unroll the first 6" from a roll of Trident-Seal™ Rubber Tape, remove backings and begin wrapping leak site. Starting away from the leak, force putty into the repair. Apply majority of tape directly over putty; entire roll must be used. Stretch tape to create and maintain both constant and maximum tension. Secure with end of roll adhesive.

6.	STOP! After applying the Trident-Seal™ Rubber Tape, test repair by following your leak detection procedures to ensure the gas leakage is sealed and contained.

7.	Fill out furnished I.D. Tag and set aside.

8a.	Water is needed to activate the Trident-Seal™ Fiberglass Outer Wrap. Put on supplied gloves, open foil package and submerge in water for 10 seconds. Trident-Seal™ Fiberglass Outer Wrap must be wrapped 2" on either side of the Trident-Seal™ Rubber Tape to cover the entire repair site.

8b.	NOTE: Occasionally twisting the Fiberglass as it is applied helps it conform tightly to the pipe surface. Wrap Trident-Seal™ Fiberglass Outer Wrap over the entire repair area. Insert I.D. Tag under the last 2 wraps then squeeze and mold in the direction of the wrap until tacky. (approx. 5 min.)
