Usage Instructions

SURFACE REPAIRS & CLEANING

Lagging that is torn, ruptured or delaminated should be repaired with:

Patching Cement: Mix cement with water and cap all exposed ends and voids.
Lag Kloth Water-Activated Repair Cloth: Lag Kloth should be dipped in water and applied to the asbestos containing material. Upon completion of repairs, prepare the surface for the application of Lag Kote. Thoroughly remove all dust and dirt that has accumulated on lagging or covering, use 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.
