1.1 Removing sealing materials

IMPORTANT:
  • Do not burn off PVC material (sealing compound) with a gas burner or similar or heat to temperatures above 180 °C. This would generate highly corrosive hydrochloric acid and release harmful fumes.
  • The new lining does not form a satisfactory bond with burnt PVC material which means that subsequent subsurface rust may set in.

Remove PVC material with a rotating steel brush, or heat PVC to maximum 180 °C with a hot air blower and scrape off with a spatula.
