Application Tips

• For best results, mix the two components according to weight.
• Always mix the product thoroughly for at least 2 minutes, scraping all surfaces of the container to ensure thorough mixing.
• It is preferable to use the product in a temperature-controlled environment within the optimal use limits of the product. Avoid cold ambient temperatures or high humidity.
• For optimum curing performance, ensure that surfaces are dry and free of all dirt, debris and/or oil. Surface preparation by mechanical sanding is strongly recommended.
• Perform pre-tests with the materials and processes being considered to fully understand the curing characteristics of the resin in your work environment and the compatibility of the resin with other materials.
• Avoid using BRT on dark coloured surfaces as the optical brightener may degrade the appearance!
