Processing instructions

The used raw materials should have a water content < 0.05%.

Ensure that all used raw materials are free of amino-functional groups.

Check the storage stability of the formulation.

In combination with alcoxy-functional resins, we do not recommend the use of alcohols or hydroxy-functional glycol ethers as solvents.

Handling & storage

When stored in an original unopened packaging, the product has a shelf life of 24 months from the date of manufacture.

Contact with tin (e.g. with metal containers) will shorten the storage stability. Keep dry. Contact with moisture causes gelation.
