Position in range

S13/S30 fast → S31/S50 medium → S70/S80 slow (low evaporation) → S100 very slow (retarder); S90 is also low-evaporation but for stains onlyrecommended

Effect on cure

does not change the 2K cure chemistry; dust-free time and time-to-sand get a bit longer, especially on thick or cool coatsrecommended

Temperature effect

viscosity drops as temperature rises and is adjusted by adding thinner; measured with a flow cup (Ford type, 2/4/6/8 mm orifice) in secondsofficial

Temperature and humidity

choose S70 above ~23-25 °C, on large flat panels and for gloss topcoats; at 15-20 °C or on vertical work use S50 (where allowed) or a S50/S70 blendrecommended

Don'ts

• Do not exceed the thinning % given for the host product (cuts solids, hiding and film build)
• Do not use S70 with polyester, nitro or waterborne products - Technocolor lists it for none of them
• Do not lay heavy coats on verticals with S70 without a sag test
• Do not thin the hardener on its own - add thinner to the A + hardener mix
