USES


SURFACE PREPARATION
Before applying SEALER GP, all previous waxes or oils should be removed using SURFACE CLEANER.

 
MOLD CLEANING

SURFACE CLEANER is a combination of solvents specially blended to aid in the preparation of new and used molds/tools prior to treatment with ZYVAX MOLD SEALERS AND RELEASE AGENTS.  It readily removes waxes and other surface contaminants without harming or dulling the working surfaces of the mold. SURFACE CLEANER will also clean brushes and spray equipment used to apply various release products and elastomeric materials.  For a NON-VOC cleaner, use our WATERCLEAN.

HOW TO USE

1.      Apply SEALER GP to a small area of the mold 1-2 sq. (.2 sq. m.) using a Bounty paper towel, clean lint free cloth, or hand sprayer.

2.      While still wet, gently wipe dry using a separate clean Bounty paper towel or lint free cloth.

3.      Make sure entire mold surface is coated in this manner, slightly over-lapping the last coated area if you are applying in sections.  Be certain that all contours are adequately coated.

4.      Wait for a minimum of 15 minutes.

5.      Apply a second coat of SEALER GP in the same way, and wait for a minimum of 15 minutes.

6.      Study chart below and apply appropriate number of coats.

7.      After the final coat, wait at least 30 minutes before applying the release agent.
