Default Removing SparTight

I honestly don't remember. Fairly thin I think. Don;t remember
the pot life.

Doug, what is the viscosity of the mixed spartite? Watery, 30 wt oil?
syrupy? What is the pot life of the mix?

Not true. We intalled a Spartite systems 4 years ago and have
yet to have a leak.. It is as tight as when it was installed both around

the
spar and around the collar. If it leaks soon after intallation, I suspect
that the surfaces were not prepared properly or the temperature
was not within range. Once the mast is pulled, I would not be
surprised if it does not seal totally.

Spar Tite is not a sealant. After installation it shrinks slightly and
will allow water to run down the mast. I use liquid BoatLife. Works
perfectly, also on the chain plates, because it flows readily into

every
chink.
