- Mala adherencia: Surface preparation is critical. Ensure all oil, grease, and old gasket material are removed. The sealant may not adhere properly to contaminated surfaces.
- Problemas de curación: Ensure the product was stored correctly and is within its shelf life. Proper ventilation during curing is also important.
