USES

Readily releases filled & unfilled polyester resins used in production of polymer concrete. Excellent release for high production polymer concrete applications requiring rapid mold turnover.

APPLICATION

On new or re-conditioned tooling apply 2-3 uniform coats by cloth wipe, brush or spray. Immediate casting/injection of resin can begin without having to wait for cure of film. Re-coat after first 1-2 parts to condition tool. Capable of providing multiple releases for various processes depending on materials processed, mold geometry, cycle times, etc. Re-apply to mold as necessary.

NOTE: : Molded parts may require cleaning prior to any post finishing.
