Usage Advice:
Cover the working area with cardboard or plastic. The surface to be coated should be dry and free of contaminants.
For best results, pour at temperatures between 19-20 Degrees C and below 70% humidity. Like most deep cast resins. Air bubbles may form on the surface. Air bubble release is greatly enhanced by the use of a heat gun or gas torch.
Care should be taken to avoid overheating in one spot – sweep the heat gun continuously across the surface for a few seconds.
Please Note: Deep Cast Resins are environment dependant. Temperature is critical and therefore environment control is highly recommended. For optimal results, do not pour large volumes outside of the recommended temperature and humidity ranges. If you can not pour under idea conditions, smaller layered pours are recommended.
Once the material has cured, it can be sanded or mechanically processed as required.
This deep cast resin can be tinted with HEALTH OF MIND pigments to achieve a vibrant finish.
