Riser Kit Application Producedures
- Dig minimum 3″ deep soil surrounding the riser.
- Wire brush so that the surface is free from loose rust, dirt and old, loose coating.
- Wipe the area clean. Surface should be wiped as dry as possible.
- Hand apply the primer. Firmly rub and press the primer onto the surface to displace the moisture and ensure that the primer is adhering to the metal surface.
- Pay special attention to applying Primer in and around all angles and threads.
- Wipe hands clean of Primer. Remove pad of Trenton Wax-Tape wrap from package and remove the backing paper.
- Starting at the bottom of the riser, firmly press the Wax-Tape wrap around the pipe with the seam facing toward the back of the pipe. When using additional pads, use a minimum of 1″ overlap.
- Press the pad of Wax-Tape wrap firmly to the pipe. Press to eliminate any bubbles and smooth the lap seams and endseams to ensure that they are selaed.
- Inspect your work. Make sure all diesired areas to be coated are completely covered. Remove and re-apply, if needed.
