APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

Prior to mixing stir part A mechanically. When all of part B has been added to part A mix continuously for 3 minutes until an uniform mixed has been achieved. Use a low speed electrical stirrer (300 to 400 rpm) to avoid air entrapment. To ensure proper mixing pour material into a clean container and stir again. Apply by brush, short piled roller or airles spray.

CLEANING OF EQUIPMENT

Clean all tools with Thinner C immediately after use. Hardened and/or cured material can only be removed mechanically.
