Geist Grain Replicator Kit

Description:

A fast-curing, two-component compound for replicating grain structures to repair leather and vinyl.

Supplied in an easy-to-use kit.

Geist. Grain Replicator Kits is made up of 4 parts:

• Cartridge: consists of 2 chambers with reactive components
• Trigger: The trigger is used to push the cartridge components through the mixing tip.
• Mixing tip: Located on top of the cartridge, the mixing tip ensures that the two components mix when pushed out.
• Plastic film: Plastic film is placed over the compound to help spread it.

Note: The One Grain Replicator kit produces two good-sized grains that can be used multiple times. Suitable for use on leather and vinyl.

Not suitable for use on absorbent or porous leather.

Instructions:

• First, prepare the surface to be granulated. Grain Replicator Kit is a fast-curing compound, so it's important to prepare the surface first. Remove all components from the kit and place them in a clean, accessible area.
• The components are viscous but have a liquid consistency.
  Choose a flat, horizontal surface with a grain structure similar to the area being repaired.
• Remove the cartridge cap and screw on the mixing tip. Cut the tapered end of the tip with scissors or a utility knife.
  It makes it easier to push components out as less force is required.
• Push the compound directly onto the leather or vinyl in a circular motion to form a bulge. Make sure there are no gaps or holes in the piece of compound. Use approximately half the amount of compound included in the cartridge.
• Place the plastic wrap over the bump and spread it into a circular shape with your finger or a spatula. Make sure the compound is evenly distributed and make the edges as thin as possible. Work quickly but carefully, as the compound hardens rapidly in warm temperatures. If necessary, use a heat gun to harden the compound. Keep your distance from the heat gun; use a warm setting to avoid burning the plastic wrap.
• After a few minutes, gently peel off the plastic film. If the film sticks to the compound, allow it to set longer. Once the film is removed, the grain can be lifted with a putty knife.
