- Handling
The quantity to apply depends on the substrate porosity, but it is from 1 to 3 g dry/sqm. Methods: Mayer bar, Reverse Roll, Roto gravure, Air knife. It can be either thickened (acrylic thickeners) or diluted (water). During dryng it is advised to heat the product for a few seconds at 150°C in order to achieve the highest properties of releasing (there is a process of self-curing) Aging properties are excellent.
- Storing
Keep material at temperatures between +5°C and +40°C, avoid direct sunlight/freezing. When stored for over one month, it is necessary to stir slowly the product for 10 - 15 minutes before use.
