WORKING TIME: Lab Testing
Results - The following are results achieved
in the T. J. Ronan Lab over a sealed surface with 6
oz. of Huls 888 colorant added. The actual working
time will depend on temperature, humidity and the type
and amount of colorant used. Working Time and Recoat
Time will be longer under colder and/or more humid conditions
and shorter under warmer and/or less humid conditions. Working
time will be shorter over a surface that is not sealed. Coating
can be removed with isopropyl alcohol up to 2 hours after application.
To extend working time at higher temperatures add Ronan Acrylic Glaze Extender
Base.
