Applications:
Ensure all surfaces, to which Vitcas Mouldable Firebrick is to adhere, are clean and free from any dust or grease. Invert tub and empty contents onto a clean surface. Take lumps of Vitcas Mouldable Firebrick and tamp into position using a mallet or hammer for maximum consolidation. Repeat until the contour of firebrick is achieved and no further consolidation can be obtained by further ramming.
A temporary support former (a piece of wood or hardboard) can be used during this operation to contain the Vitcas Mouldable Firebrick.
Excess material can be cut back using a knife, but do not smooth the surface or use a wet trowel.
Leave Vitcas Mouldable Fire brick to dry overnight, then use gentle heat for 8 to 10 hours to thoroughly dry the material, before increasing the temperature to maximum. The appliance can then be put into normal use.
