What does curing time depend on?

The curing of DRY FLEX® and BIO FLEX™ is, due to its character (chemical curing), dependent on mass and (environmental) temperature. A larger layer thickness (more mass) or a higher temperature means a faster curing. A smaller layer thickness (less mass) or a lower temperature means a slower curing. 

Why should I use a primer (DRY FIX®)?

When using repair resin, a good adhesion must be created between resin and wood, because the resin is too firm to penetrate the substrate properly. In order to make a solid connection with the wooden substrate, a (liquid) epoxy adhesive primer is applied first, which will form a connection with the epoxy resin to be […]

Is it recommended to repair rotating parts?

Rotating parts such as windows and doors do not necessarily have to be replaced when damaged. As long as the damage is non-constructive (i.e. not at the joints), they can be repaired perfectly.

What is a pure epoxy?

This is an epoxy without fillers. The addition of (cheap) fillers – such as glass beads or chalk – results in the presence of unbound components after curing. The loss of elasticity due to the use of fillers makes a repair vulnerable to cracking and detachment.

Can DRY FLEX® SF be used without milling?

Yes, DRY FLEX® SF is a filler and can be used for natural cracks and small defects (< 6mm) in new and unpainted wood. Any raised wood fibres on the contact surface can be removed by sanding.

How long do repairs last?

With the correct preparation and application, DRY FLEX® repairs will last for the lifetime of the substrate. The repairs will also significantly extend redecoration cycles.
