Usage Instructions

SURFACE PREPARATION

Prior to application it is important to determine if the existing asbestos matrix is well adhered to the substrate. Correct any surface defects and clean all surfaces thoroughly. Be careful not to agitate asbestos fibers during preparation; this could increase asbestos exposure. Locate damaged asbestos containing thermal insulation. Thoroughly remove all dust and dirt that has accumulated on lagging or covering, using a vacuum with a HEPA filter specifically designed to capture hazardous dust and waste or wipe surfaces with a damp cloth. Do not air clean surfaces; this could increase asbestos exposure. Heavy rust should be scraped or wire brushed from all ferrous metal surfaces or hangers before vacuuming surrounding surfaces. Wetting exposed insulation with Fiberlock’s Penewet wetting agent will help suppress the release of asbestos fibers.

PRODUCT APPLICATION

Cut Lag Kloth to appropriate size. Dip Lag Kloth in water and smooth out excess water (DO NOT WRING OUT). Shape Lag Kloth to specific area by hand and apply to surface. Overlap loose ends of Lag Kloth to ensure complete coverage. Allow Lag Kloth to dry before applying Lag Kote or Lag Kote II.
