• Top Tip: We recommend during colder temperatures, to store your bag of IRR at room temperature overnight prior to use, or alternatively placing it in the footwell of your vehicle with the heating on. This helps to soften the cold-lay making it more pliable, and easier to apply.

Can you use Instant Road Repair in the rain?

Why is my Instant Road Repair firm in the bag or tub? 

Instant Road Repair may feel a little stiff & firm to the touch, but this doesn’t mean that the material is unusable or has ‘gone off’. The IRR 10mm pothole repair can sometimes appear firm in the bag or tub, and this can be due to how it has been stored – if stored at the base of a pallet, or how long it has been kept. However the majority of the time it just requires a little light pressure to reactivate the binder within the tarmac to soften it up. 

How do I soften up my Instant Road Repair? 

Applying light pressure, with your knee or elbow to the edge of the Instant Road Repair bag, will activate the binder in the mixture and will restore the material to its normal, pliable consistency. In particularly cold conditions, you may find that storing the material somewhere warm for 24 hours prior to use will soften the material in the bag or tub considerably.
