Description: The following surface preparation procedures are recommended. METALS Degrease – Wipe laying surfaces with Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) or acetone to remove all oil, dirt, and grease. Etch – For optimum results, metal parts should be immersed in a chromic acid solution consisting of:Sodium dichromate – 4 parts by weight Sulfuric acid – 10 parts by weight Water – 30 parts by weightThe solution should be held at a temperature of 160°F (71°C), and the parts left immersed for 5 to 7 minutes.Rinse – remove metal parts from etching bath and rinse in clean cold water (de-ionized water is recommended). If thoroughly clean, metal surfaces so treated will hold a thin film of water. Dry – To accelerate drying, items to be bonded can be placed in an air-circulating oven. ALTERNATE PROCEDURE Degrease, scour and dry – Often etching as outlined above is not practical. The metal surfaces may be cleaned by degreasing as noted above, scouring with an alkaline cleanser followed by rinsing and drying. Degrease and dry – Degrease the surface as noted above, sand or sandblast the surface lightly but thoroughly. Rinse with acetone or Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK), and dry. GLASS Degrease – With MEK as above, or with a strong boiling solution of a good grade household detergent. Etch – For optimum results, degreasing can be followed by the chromic acid bath outlined above. WOOD Sand – Bonding surfaces should be sanded lightly, but thoroughly to remove all external contamination. Clean – Carefully remove all dust, or particles of wood from sanded areas. A stiff and clean brush or compressed air can be used. PLASTIC Clean – Remove all dirt, oil, or other surfaces contaminated with detergent soap or degreasing solvent and water, followed by thorough rinsing and drying. A solvent that does not have a detrimental effect may also be used. Sand – Surfaces to be bonded should be sanded lightly, but thoroughly to remove surface sheen. Clean – Carefully remove all dust or particles of plastic from the sanded area. A clean brush, lint-free cloth, or compressed air may be used. Check the PART A or RESIN Bottle For Crystallization - During the winter months, the PART A or RESIN component may crystallize and cause poor cure performance. Our MAX Epoxy Resins are formulated with high purity grade resin polymers which makes it prone to crystallization when exposed to temperatures below 57°F. Crystallization can also occur after the resin has been stored over a period. It will appear as a waxy white mass at the bottom of the bottle.The PART A or RESIN component must be in its liquid form to thoroughly mix with the PART B or curing agent to achieve full cure.DO NOT USE UNLESS PROCESSEDView the following video for identification and processing. Determine the amount the batch size needed.Blending amounts greater than 1000.0 grams or 1 quart in volume requires careful mixing and ensuring the mixed resin is applied and used within the established working time to prevent exothermic "run-away" reaction. Do not let the mixed resin to sit in mass greater than 10 minutes. The heat generated during polymerization will accelerate the chemical reaction and cause a 'run-away' reaction to occur that can generate temperatures above 300°F when allowed to react in mass. Mix the proper amount of resin and curing agent and apply within the stated working time or pot life. Calculate the amount to be mixed by measuring the length x width x thickness to be coated to obtain the cubic volume of the resin needed.Visit this link to use coverage calculator. https://instacalc.com/35245/embedEnter the length and width and coating thickness in inches and the amount of resin and curing agent batch size will be calculated by weight and by volume.

For applying a seal coating on bare wood, mix a small batch of resin and curing agent and apply it onto the bare wood and allow to cure 4 to 12 hours. The mixed resin will seal the surface porosity as well as prevent air bubbles from outgassing and minimize entrapped air bubbles. The second coat can be applied directly within 12 hours from the application of the first coat. The surface may require sanding if subsequent coats are applied after 24 hours. For decorative finished or to yield very smooth, glass-like coating, apply the first coat and allow the resin to soak into the wood and allow to cure overnight or until hard to the touch. The applied resin will cause end-fibers to relax and cause "grain-raising. Sand the surface with medium-grit sandpaper, wipe the surface with a lint-free rag and apply a second heavy coat. Upon cure this will yield to a high-gloss, smooth finish. Mixing ProcedureThe two components must be mixed thoroughly to eliminate problems such as tacky or uncured spots. Use the "two container method" as demonstrated in this video demonstration, which ensures a homogeneous mixture of the resin and curing agent.Click Play To Watch Video DemonstrationHow To Mix Epoxy Resin For Food Contact Coating.

The container in which the epoxy and curing agent is mixed is an important consideration when mixing an epoxy resin system. The container must withstand the tenacity of the chemical and must be free of contamination. Most epoxy curing agent has a degree of corrosivity, as a general practice, protective gloves should be worn when handling chemicals of the same nature.
