Hold the Damaged Area Tight Over a Flat Surface.
Make sure you put a plastic bag below the sail so it doesn't stick to the flat surface. If you have time, clean with acetone the area you are going to repair to improve the adhesive performance
Apply Product Into the Seam Using the Nozzle
Unlock the tube, put the nozzle and squeeze out the adhesive.
Use the Scraper for an Even and Thin Application of the Adhesive
Apply pressure and use the adhesive left in the edges to seal the area, preventing future peeling
Leave It for 24 Minutes to Cure
Remove the nozzle, lock the tube and keep it for next repair (3 years shelf life)
