- 1 Part: MFI-500 High Solids Activator
- 2-4 Parts: MFI-400 Series Zero VOC Reducer
Application
- Do not apply at temperatures below 50°F
- Paint film is not fully cured for 7 days – Dry time listed may vary, depending upon film build, color selection, temperature, humidity and degree of air movement
- Excess film thickness will retard dry times and affect the recoat window
- In-Service Temperature: 300 °F (As you approach 300 °F depending on the pigmentation, the color may change, but the film integrity will be maintained up to 300 °F.)
- Avoid moisture contamination with the Activator – moisture can gel the material and affect the performance properties
