Step 4: instructions

Position the sealing bead facing upwards and apply 3–4 drops of UV resin. Let the resin flow evenly along the groove into the seam.

Curing · Choose one method

UV lamp curing

About 5–10 minutes

Move the small UV lamp slowly along the seam, exposing every part until the resin has fully cured.

Direct sunlight curing

About 30 minutes

Place the seam in direct sunlight. Gently turn the piece as needed so every part of the seam receives light.

Times are approximate. Make sure the resin has fully cured before proceeding.

05 · Complete
