Usage Guidelines

Thinning Ratio: Typical addition is 5% to 15% by volume. Actual amount depends on application equipment, temperature, and required DFT. Always mix Part A and Part B thoroughly before adding thinner.

Cleaning: May be used for cleaning spray equipment, brushes, and rollers immediately after use. Not recommended for removing cured epoxy.

Safety & Handling

HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Vapors may cause flash fire. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Wear solvent-resistant gloves and safety goggles.
