Technical Details & Test Data

Compatibility

Substrate Compatibility: Consult 401B partial compatibility chart table for substrate compatibility. It is always recommended to perform a compatibility test on a non-critical test area prior to large scale applications. Perform this test even if the chart predicts high compatibility since modern plastic parts may incorporated hidden incompatible materials in the form of plastic blends or as protective and decorative coatings.
