Sealant is a black, viscous
paste with a characteristic alcoholic odor. It is a slow drying,
flexible setting paste that changes to a pliable, non-hardening
film through solvent evaporation. It seals flanges, fittings,
connections and flexible assemblies against leakage. It
increases the reliability of gasket seals.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
1. Remove all previous material from mating surfaces.
Permatex Gasket Remover is recommended for most
materials, not for plastics or painted surfaces.
2. For best results, clean and dry all surfaces with a
residue-free solvent, such as Permatex Brake and
Parts Cleaner.
3. Remove cap, puncture tube or cartridge seal and attach
extension nozzle (if provided).
4. When used as a gasket dressing, spread product with a
spatula to a uniform film on one side of gasket and then
position it on the assembly. Coat the second side of
gasket and re-assemble. Slower drying formula
increases work time.
5. Assembly is operational after 4 hours, full cure is
affected after 24 hours.
1. The product can be removed from metal surfaces with
isopropyl alcohol. If the sealant has been dried for a
long time or at high temperatures, cover the sealant with
alcohol and allow to soften overnight.
2. Clean hands with Permatex brand hand cleaners.
