Hot MELT STICK is a heat-sensitive, PP copolymer-based stick used for small superficial damage (scratches) to PP-coatings where the damage does not extend to the bare metal. Installation is done with a standard gas torch.
Using a hand grinder chamfer the edges of the polypropylene coating surrounding the damaged area until a smoothly contoured surface is obtained in the repair area.
Using the hot air tool, heat the minor repair area to 160 - 180℃. Using the digital thermometer, ensure the correct temperature has been reached.
While holding the cut-to-length PP Melt Stick/Strip use the hot air tool to heat the end of the material until it becomes soft and flexible.
Fill the affected area with the heated PP Melt Stick/Strip. Use the hot air tool to heat the PP Melt Stick/Strip until it is soft and pliable. Force the activated material into the repair area or depression with a scraper / spatula, heating and smoothing to achieve a seamless finish.
