section iron and steel castings.

thoroughly before use especially after prolonged storage
or transportation and then check the Baume reading. A
mechanical stirrer or a hand plunger may be used. The
coating ill be stable for a long period after mixing.
The consistency of the
product as supplied is suitable for application by brush
or swab but for spraying or dipping it may be diluted as
necessary with Grade I Isopropanol.
After application of the
coating it should be ignited in order to burn off the
solvent. The mould may then be closed and metal can be
poured immediately. As an alternative to burning off the
solvent, it may be allowed to evaporate over several hours
after which the resultant coating layer will be firmly
bonded.
A second coat may be applied
if required once the first coat is completely Dry.
