1. After each use, always replace the protective foil and the silica gel packet.

4. Once you reach the edge of the tub, press the foil around the inside perimeter, keeping the excess foil facing up.
5. Replace silica gel packet and secure the lid.

Before use, always remove any dry material or skin that may have formed on the surface. Do not mix dry and fresh Flex Paste together in the tub.
