As we approach the winter months, make sure you are taking extra special care of your paint to avoid any potential pitfalls that could arise.
-
Never spray two-component (2K) urethane products below 55°F (13°C). The chemical reaction for curing stops below these temps and cannot be restarted.
-
Insure your 2K products are at a temp of at least 60°F (16°) before mixing and applying.
-
Keep waterborne toners off the floor and insulated from outside walls to prevent freezing. Acceptable storage conditions are 41°F - 105°F (5°C - 41°).
-
Waterborne toners that appear separated or “chunky” were likely to have been frozen and rethawed. Do not use.
