Aquasol Liquifilm Water Soluble Purge Film and Adhesive 500ml Bottle
Introducing Aquasol Liquifilm, the revolutionary water-soluble purge film that eliminates the need for expensive inert gas purging during TIG welding. This innovative film forms a temporary barrier around the weld area, preventing oxidation and ensuring high-quality welds even in confined spaces or where total purging is impractical.

Instructions
1. Clean inside of pipe, removing contaminants from surface
2. Apply Liquifilm Water Soluble Adhesive to inside of pipe. Thoroughly coat the entire circumference of the pipe surface where film is to be placed
3. Trace pipes inner diameter by pressing Liquifilm along pipe edge, creating an impression, then fold to form a 90 angle. Cut Liquifilm in a circle around the impression, approximately one-third times greater than pipe diameter
4. Press glossy surface of Liquifilm against tacky adhesive inside the pipe to create an air tight seal. If required, puncture a small hole in the center of the purge dam to allow oxygen to escape or dissipate through the root gap
