Applications & Uses

Application Method: Spray
Compatible Substrates & Surfaces: Iron,
Metal,
Refractory
Cure Method: Air Dry
Mixing Information: The product is manufactured in a concentrated slurry. However, the product can be easily mixed to a thinner consistency by adding enough trim water to reach the desired Baumeoᵒ for an individual foundry. (Typically 39 baume) Minimal foam will result when the product is mixed in accordance with instructions. Use mechanical agitation for easy mixing. To assure quality performances use a vortex less mixer blade. Recommend frequent scheduled emptying of mixing vessels or storage tanks, followed by clean down, clear water rinsing to prevent contamination.
Airless Sprayer Specification: Use 0.43 orifice airless sprayer.
