Limitations:

Not designed for continuous submersion or use below the waterline. Air, sealant and surface temperature should be above 40°F. Do not apply if rain is expected within 12 hours. Cure time is dependent upon ambient conditions including temperature and humidity. The sealant should be dry to the touch and ready to paint in 2-4 hours.
