QuikFix BC 102 is a hand-mixable,
NON-SHRINKING, filled epoxy putty which when cured becomes an integral part
of the wooden item being repaired, rebuilt, or restored. One hour after mixing,
QuikFix BC 102 can be drilled, sawed, sanded, filed, tapped,
machined, or painted. It comes in a handy, 2 oz. "tootsie roll"
form with the curing agent encapsulated in the contrasting color base material.
The putty like consistency eliminates drips and runs, providing "no mess"
applications with no tools required for use. QuikFix BC 102 belongs in every
toolbox.
After
proper mixing, QuikFix BC 102 molds like clay to repair, rebuild, or restore
anything made of wood. It fills nail and screw holes, gouges, and scratches,
and replaces rotten and worn wood. It repairs moldings, panel frames, and
furniture, including leveling table and chair legs. QuikFix BC 102 can be used to reshape woodcarvings and wood
parts such as handles, knobs, and pulls. It can also be used as an adhesive
in making general wood-to-wood, and wood to metal bonding. QuikFix BC 102 contains no solvents, will not shrink, pull
away, or dry out and is non-toxic. QuikFix BC 102 may be used in interior and exterior applications as it is virtually unaffected
by weather. Sanding of cured QuikFix BC 102 may
be used in interior and exterior applications as it is virtually unaffected
by weather. Sanding of cured QuikFix BC 102 is recommended prior to applying paint or stain, QuikFix BC 102 may accept stain differently than wood. Test
before using. The unused portion of QuikFix BC
102 will remain stable for years
if stored in its container at room temperature.
QuikFix BC 102 is packed in a reusable clear plastic tube with
a plastic friction top. 12 tubes to a display carton; two display cartons
in a master carton.

Surface
Preparation:
In
order to achieve optimum adhesion, surfaces should be clean and free of grease
and dirt. Scuffing or sanding the surface prior to cleaning helps ensure a
good bond.
Twist
or cut off required amount. To mix, knead with fingers to a uniform color.
If mixing is difficult, warm QuikFix BC 102 to a room temperature of slightly
above. Apply to the surface to be repaired (within 15-20 minutes of mixing).
Force into any cracks or holes to be filled and strike off excess material,
preferably with a tool wetted with clean water. When applying to damp, wet,
or slowly leaking area, work he material forcefully into the surface and apply
pressure until adhesion begins to take effect.
For a
smooth appearance of the cured compound, hand rub with water or a damp cloth
prior to hardening. Remove excess material before hardening begins. After
15-20 minutes the epoxy will begin to form a tenacious bond. After just 60
minutes QuikFix BC 102 can be drilled, sawed, carved, sanded, stained, or painted.
When
mixing by hand, QuikFix BC 102 does not cause skin irritation to individuals
with normal skin sensitivity. Individuals with extra sensitive skin should
maintain caution and wash hands thoroughly after mixing the compound, or wear
thin plastic gloves. QuikFix BC 102 has been classified non-toxic
and non-skin irritating when tested versus the requirements of the Federal
Hazardous Substances Labeling Act.
1. May cause irritation to sensitive skin. Wash hands
with soap and water after use.
2. Eye irritant. In case of eye contact, flush with water.
Contact physician.
3. May be harmful if swallowed.
4. Keep out of reach of children.
