 A. Mixing the Sealant
 (1)
 Refer to the manufacturers instructions for :

 -mixing ratios,
 -application life,
 -tack free time,
 -cure time,
 -work life.

 (2)
 Mix the base compound and sealant accelerator slowly until you get an even consistency and color. If you mix quickly you will cause heat and air bubbles and shorten the application life of the sealant.

 (3)
 You must mix the sealant as close to the time of application as possible.
