    Processing Instructions
    • Mix Comp. A and B according to mixing ratio.
    • The mixture cures at 23 °C for 4-6 hours.
    • In order to achieve food safety the molds have to be postcured at 200° for 4 hrs. to make the volatile contents escaping.
    • For bubble free molds evacuate the material for about 5-10 min. at 30-50 mbar.
