Processing instructions

For hydrophobic impregnations, the active matter content should be diluted to 5-25%.

For hydrophobic primers, a combination with acrylic hydrosols is recommended. The higher the absorption of the substrate, the higher the hydrosol content should be.

Dilutions ready for sale should be protected with a preservative.

Handling & storage

When stored in an original unopened packaging between +4 and +40 °C, the product has a shelf life of at least 18 months from the date of manufacture.
