Technical Details & Test Data

Mixing
  1. Scrape settled material free from the bottom and sides of the part A container; stir the contents until homogenous. Use a paint shaker if available.
  2. Measure 2 parts by volume of the part A and pour into the mixing container. Ensure all contents are transferred by scraping the container.
  3. Measure 1 part by volume of the part B and pour into the mixing container. Ensure all contents are transferred by scraping the container.
  4. Thoroughly and gently mix parts A and B together. Avoid introducing air bubbles.
  5. To de-air, let sit for 15 minutes or put in a vacuum chamber at 25 inHg for 2 minutes.
  6. If bubbles are present at the top, break them gently with the mixing paddle.
  7. Pour the mixture into a container holding the components to be protected.
  8. Close the part A and B containers tightly between uses to prevent skinning.
