Product Application
Surface preparation
Proper surface preparation is crucial. The surface to be coated must be completely dry and free of dust, wax, grease, or oil.
Mixing
Warm the resin and hardener to 24-27 °C. This will improve flow characteristics and bubble release.
Pour exact amounts of resin (component A) and hardener (component B) into separate cups (2 parts resin to 1 part hardener). Stir separately. In a clean, dry container, mix the resin with the hardener. Stir for 3 to 4 minutes, making sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the container. After this mixing, transfer the mixture to a similar container and stir again for 1 to 2 minutes.
How to apply
Pour the mixture into the mold. Wait 15 to 20 minutes, then pass the flame of a propane torch over the surface at a 45° angle, with the tip of the torch at least 6 inches (15 cm) from the surface. Continue until all bubbles have disappeared.
The carbon dioxide at the tip of the flame facilitates bubble release and bursting. If latent bubbles appear 30 minutes later, reusing the torch may be necessary. Drips can be sanded once the surface has hardened.
Curing Time
Allow at least 24 hours for drying and at least 72 hours for complete curing. Temperature and humidity affect curing time.

Immediately after use, clean all equipment with acetone. Always keep your safety glasses and gloves on to avoid any contact with the product. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water
