It is important to spread paste roughly 1” to either side of crack for the entire length of crack to ensure adhesion during injection. Once ports are drilled or glued in place the crack is the bridged with an epoxy paste which is a sealer to contain the epoxy resin during the injection process. if wall is 8” thick spacing will be roughly 8”) Spacing is typically determined based upon thickness of the substrate being injected (i.e. Set injection ports along the length of the crack. Setting the Epoxy Injection Ports in Place If there is any trickling water or moisture after cleaning the surface, address the issue at its source and cut off any flow before proceeding, the area must remain dry. Also, compressed air or water may be used to remove any debris to create a clean, surface in preparation to mount the injection ports. Remove Dirt & Debris from Foundation Crackīefore injecting the epoxy, dirt will be cleared with a wire brush from the crack.
