Overview

Overview

Back

Repair Care DRY FLEX® 1 is a very quick drying, flexible repair compound for both emergency and permanent repairs on interior and exterior wood surfaces, such as windows, doors, stairs, furniture, fascias and soffits. Ideal for small, quick repairs with a thickness level of 5-15mm. Once set, it has excellent mechanical features, naturally moving like wood. It can be sanded and finished to match the surrounding area after 1 hour. Easy to use.

Preparation

Preparation

Back

Ensure that areas to be filled are clean, dry and free from surface dust and debris, removing any damaged and rotten wood from the area.

  • To ensure maximum adhesion between the substrate and Repair Care DRY FLEX® 1, treat the prepared area using Repair Care DRY FIX® UNI.

Application

Application

Back

Always do a small test area before starting any project to assess performance and end result. Follow the manufacturers instructions on the container at all times.

Optimum application is achieved between 0°C and 25°C with good air movement and ventilation.

  1. Insert both components into either the Repair Care EASY.Q High Performance Dosing Gun, ensuring tab is in the forward position
  2. Dispense both tubes onto a Repair Care EASY.Q Mixing Plate and mix using a Repair Care EASY.Q Steel Application Knife, until it reaches a solid orange colour
  3. Spread the mixture thinly across the mixing plate, as this will extend the application period
  4. Apply the coating to the prepared area, using the metal knife
  5. Immediately remove any excess product
  6. Allow 1 hour to fully cure

Please Note: Always wear suitable Protective clothing, goggles and Repair Care EASY.Q Disposable Nitrile Gloves.

Finishing

Finishing

Back

Once cured, the area can be sanded, planed, sawn, screwed, nailed and finished with the chosen paint or stain to match the surrounding area.

How long will a repair last if I used Repair Care?

The Repair Care products are fantastic quality and 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.


How soon can I paint the timber after using Repair Care 1?

After the product has fully cured (usually 1 hour) you can begin painting. Please note- the cure time is affected by temperature, humidity and size of the repair.


What are the differences between DRY FLEX 1, 4, and 16?

The numbers refer to approximate drying times in hours (at 20 degrees) DRY FLEX® 16 is ideal for larger projects where time is not a factor DRY FLEX® 4 is suitable for small and large repairs that need completing within a day. DRY FLEX® 1 is suitable for fast, small repairs from 5- 10 mm in depth, for example emergency response maintenance.


Do I need to wear gloves when mixing the Repair Care?

We would recommend wearing the disposable Repair Care EASY.Q Disposable Nitrile Gloves to avoid skin contact with epoxy. Nitrile gloves are ideally suited for this purpose. Latex, vinyl, painting gloves etc. do not provide sufficient protection when you are using the Repair Care systems.

Excellent for repairing rotten windows and door
Really straightforward to mix and use, and the repairs are pretty easy to mould although I still end up needing to sand - I cant get them as smooth as the instruction video shows is possible - probably need better tools!

Check sizing carefully
Not only is Repair Care ruinously expensive they seem to go out of their way to complicate their products/pricing (eg. cheaper to buy a ‘Trial Pack’ than separate components). I only ordered the Dry Flex 1 because the others were ‘out of stock’ but it turns out the ‘300ml’ refers to both the A and B tubes combined. So if you order Dry Flex 1 you get a diddy 200ml tube of component A. Very annoying
