instructions and apply to post surface. Use a Lentulo
Spiral to coat the walls of the post space with cement, if
setting time of cement will allow (Fig. 06).
12. Seat post immediately, slowly inserting the post to full
depth, allowing excess cement to vent (Fig. 07). Apply
pressure for about 60 seconds.
13. In the event light-curing is required, wipe away any
excess cement before activating the light and follow
manufacturer's instruction. Place curing light probe
directly over the post, applying gentle pressure with the
curing light tip. Light-cure for a minimum of 60 seconds
(depending on volume and depth). If you are using an
LED light, make sure your light-cured cement contains
the Camphorquinone (CQ) Photoinitiator. If you have any
questions, contact the cement manufacturer.
