1a. JOINT: Cut the provided butyl strip to be sure that it wraps around the entire joint and the ends meet. Begin wrapping rubber tape on the outer half and work towards the leaking joint by stretching the tape to its maximum tension. Use entire roll of pressure tape and continue to wrap until the leak has stopped.
1b. CRACK: Use only the Rubber tape and be sure that the butyl patch, which has been pre-mounted to the rubber tape, goes directly over the leaking area. Begin wrapping tape by stretching to its maximum tension DIRECTLY over the repair area until it has stopped. DO NOT CHASE THE LEAK as each wrap provides additional pressure over the leak.
2. Remove Syntho-Glass® from foil pouch using enclosed gloves. Soak in temperate water for 20 seconds.
3. Tightly wrap Syntho-Glass using entire roll. Wrap approximately 2” above and below the repair and directly over the rubber tape.
4. Squeeze and mold Syntho-Glass in the direction of wrap, removing excess water and spreading resin until tacky to touch (approximately  3 min). Wait 30 min at 75°F before returning to normal operating pressure.
