How to Use Mor-Flexx
- The most important step for a successful Mor-Flexx repair is to make the
surrounding area as clean as possible - that means removing all loose and foreign
matter with a thorough wire brushing, even if it looks "clean."
- If dirt or oils are present, wash with any household cleaner, rinse to remove and
allow to dry.
- Wire brush the crack or chipped area (or use a drill with a wire wheel) to loosen
and remove any poorly bonded material, and to provide good surfaces for adhesion.
Use a vacuum cleaner (intake or exhaust), compressed air, or a wet rag or sponge
to completely remove all loose material and dust.
- If crack depth is greater than 1" (25mm), appropriate size backing rod may be inserted
to about 3/8"-1/2" (10-13mm) below surface for a stronger, longer lasting seal that
actually uses less Mor-Flexx.

Application
- Insert cartridge into a standard 2" caulk gun, cut nozzle to desired opening.
- Gun Mor-Flexx into the crack and work it into the sides with a scraper or other
tool for complete sealing and adhesion; repeat until filled.
- Smooth out exposed filled area with a foam paintbrush, sponge or scraper, making
it flush with the joint.
- Natural shrinkage will give the seal a concave appearance; more applications may
be needed to fill the joint flat.
- If painting is desired, wait at least one day after the last application.
- Clean-up tools and hands with warm water and soap.
- Leftover Mor-Flexx can be stored if the nozzle is tightly wrapped with plastic wrap
and a rubber band.
Helpful Application Tips
Mor-Flexx, and all water-cleanup products, cure by water evaporation. Temperatures
below 40°F, humidity higher than 50%, no direct sunlight, and the size of the
filled area can all affect the time Mor-Flexx needs to fully cure. Mor-Flexx can
be applied in damp areas, but should not be exposed to rain until cured. Alcohol
and/or water in a spray bottle may be used to slow skinning (the initial drying
of the exposed joint area) above 70°F (21°C) or in hot, direct sunlight.
