Thinning Instructions

Make necessary adjustments according to your paint and spray gun equipment usage instructions. A 1:1 paint to acetone dilution is a common starting point. If sagging is observed, reduce the thinner ratio.

Attention !

It is preferable to use this thinner system in a temperature controlled environment. Avoid high temperatures or humidity, which can lead to dry spray and blushing respectively.

Technical Details & Test Data

Compatibility

Substrate Compatibility: The 434 is compatible with most substrate materials found on printed circuit assemblies. Its etching action can remove the need for surface preparation steps for plastics. The high solvent power can also cut through residual contaminants.

Attention !

Use with care on thin plastics or parts that are chemically sensitive. If this diluent is too active, dilute or substitute it with a diluent with less solvent power.

Solvent Miscibility :The 434 is highly miscible with other common organic solvent. It can be mixed with

  • Water
  • Alcohols
  • Aldehydes
  • Aromatic and Aliphatic Hydrocarbons
  • Ethers
  • Glycols
  • Glycol Ethers
  • Ketones
