INSTRUCTIONS:
1. NOTICE. Fast 2K
TM
is ideal to ll voids around a fence or mail box post and is NOT intended for applications where it would be subjected to
load-bearing, such as slabs.
2. Please ensure you have the following materials required for application:
- Knife or scissors - Protective chemical resistant gloves (included with Fast 2K
TM
)
- An object with a round hard edge such as a step stool or small table. - Safety glasses or goggles
3. Always keep Fast 2K
TM
bags at 60°F - 95°F (15°C - 35°C) for at least 1 hour before using. Product from bags kept at lower temperatures will take
longer to react, expand and set and will produce less volume. Product from bags kept at higher temperatures will react, expand and set faster, lowering
the working time and producing a higher volume, weaker composite.
4. Make sure that there is no standing water in the hole. It’s a good idea to put 3-4” of gravel at bottom of hole. Set and brace (or hold) the post inside the
hole, making sure it is leveled before mixing the bag.
5. CAUTION! Although this bag may have a tear notch, always have scissors or a knife next to the hole ready to cut the corner of the bag
IMMEDIATELY AFTER mixing is complete as indicated in steps 6, 7 & 8 and in case the tear notch does not exist or malfunctions. Failure to
cut the bag immediately after mixing will result in the composite expanding inside the bag which may cause the bag to rupture, contents to spray out
and personal injury as well as property damage to occur. Mixing must be complete and bag must be cut in less than one minute from removing outer
black clip.
6. To release outer black clip that divides the bag, grasp the outer edge of the bag on both ends lengthwise and pull bag outwards with moderate force
until black clip eases off. CAUTION! DO NOT PULL THE BAG SHARPLY AND DO NOT SLIDE THE CLIP OFF THE BAG as it may tear apart the
bag, causing the contents to spray out and personal injury as well as property damage to occur.
7. Rub the bag with moderate force for 30 seconds along a round hard edge by forcing material inside the bag from
one end to the other with each stroke (“shoe shining” technique). CAUTION! DO NOT EXCEED MIXING TIME AND
NEVER ALLOW THE COMPOSITE TO START EXPANDING INSIDE THE BAG AS BAG MAY RUPTURE,
CAUSING CONTENTS TO SPRAY OUT AND PERSONAL INJURY AS WELL AS PROPERTY DAMAGE
TO OCCUR.
8. USING THE TEAR NOTCH OR A KNIFE, CUT ONE OF THE BAG CORNERS IMMEDIATELY AFTER
MIXING AND POUR MIXED COMPOSITE INTO THE HOLE BEFORE EXPANSION STARTS. Tip: To avoid spillage,
prior to cutting the bag corner, gently push the product out of that corner rst. CAUTION! Cut the bag open
immediately if composite starts to expand in the bag. EXPANSION INSIDE THE BAG WILL CAUSE THE BAG
TO RUPTURE, CONTENTS TO SPRAY OUT AND PERSONAL INJURY AS WELL AS PROPERTY DAMAGE
TO OCCUR.
9. Empty the bag into the hole, wetting the sides of the post at or slightly above ground level. Fast 2K
TM
is waterproof
after it cures and will help protect posts from rotting. Therefore it is even more benecial to have Fast 2K
TM
lling the
hole all the way to the top by pouring some extra Fast 2K
TM
and/or by setting the post in the narrowest possible hole.
After initial pour, roll the bag to completely empty the content out into the hole.
NOTICE. Do not move the post up or down.
10. Adjust / level the post side to side if necessary within the next 10 seconds. Do not move the post after expansion
starts. In approximately 3-4 minutes Fast 2K
TM
should expand up to 3-5 inches (8-13 cm) from the top of the hole.
There should be no need to brace or hold the post 1-2 minutes after that.
11. In approximately 15-30 minutes Fast 2K
TM
will already be quite hard, can be topped up with dirt and you can start to
build or mount the fence, gate, mailbox or sign.
NOTES:
A. If necessary, a hole can always be topped up with more composite. When topping up, wait for at least
10-15 minutes after a bag poured previously has completely expanded or it is cured to the touch. If too much Fast 2K
TM
has been poured into the hole and there is an overow above ground, wait for 10 - 15 minutes after pouring the bag, or the
composite is tack free, and remove the excess by carefully cutting it with a handsaw or a utility knife, for example. Be
careful as this may damage the post surface.
B. CLEAN UP: Using a soft cloth and mineral spirits , carefully remove any Fast 2K
TM
smudges from
surfaces of the post that are visible (above ground) as well as from tools before Fast 2K
™ dries.
After Fast 2K
TM
dries, it can only be removed by carefully cutting it with sharp knife. Be careful as this may damage
the post surface. Should some of the Fast 2K get on your skin, wipe away, then wash the area immediately
while product is still wet. Should the product cure on your skin, apply liberal amounts of hand lotion to the area,
multiple times a day, and it will peel away after 2-3 days. If Fast 2K gets into your hair or beard, coat the area
thoroughly with conditioner and leave it for 10 minutes then comb and wash the product out.
