Unsupported methods
conventional_sprayrecommended

Flat parts only. Stir well before use (TiO2 settles). Adjust viscosity with material temperature, not with solvent. Roller coater only: spray and curtain are not supported (100 % solids, not sprayable viscosity) — use Technocolor's spray-grade UV products for spraying. recommended

Process and compatibility

Substrate preparation
Flat panel (MDF, PB, veneer) primed with white UV primer, sanded P240–P320, dust removed.recommended
Sanding
not specifiedofficial
Temperature and humidity
20–30 °C, RH ≤ 70 %recommended
Don'ts
  • Do not spray — roller grade only
  • Do not thin with solvent (S30 etc.) — a roller line has no flash zone, trapped solvent spoils cure
  • Keep out of daylight / UV light — it will start to cure in the can or tray
  • Not for profiled parts

Storage

Storage temperature
5–25 °C, dark, closed containerrecommended

Safety: Uncured acrylates are skin sensitisers: nitrile gloves and safety glasses, wash uncured material off skin with soap and water (not solvent). Shield eyes/skin from UV lamp radiation. Cure leftovers in light before disposal.
