Step 8: Seal the Exterior and Air Dry

Once the cooler has finished drying, complete the seal on the exits by adding Phenoseal to the cooler exterior and the rim of the exits.

Check the PVC pipe alignment as adjustments may be needed after drying.

1. Starting with the left side, check the water run-off alignment and adjust as needed.

2. Add Phenoseal around the exterior wall of the cooler and the exterior of the pipe.

3. Use a damp paper towel, or your finger, to form a seal between the wall of the cooler and the exterior of the pipe.

4. Let the exterior Air Dry for at least 24 hours. Do not add heat to speed up the process, this will weaken the lifespan and weatherproofing of the Phenoseal.
