This top coat is ready to use by application with a brush. Mix the product slowly but thoroughly for 10 minutes prior to each shift start up. Apply the correct film thickness. A wet film thickness between 300 to 600µm is required ideally working with a brush to ensure a level even thickness of 500 micron Check that the correct level of MEKP is added. A level of 1,8% is recommended. Do not use more than 3% or lower than 1,2% MEKP catalyst. Minimum application temperature : 15°C This product is not designed for use with a spray gun.
