APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1.
2.

Check availability of all components.

Homogenize each component separately before mixing. Use a pneumatic or electric explosion
- proof mixer.
3. Pour the resin into a clean container and then the catalyst.
4. Mix thoroughly the two components using the mixer. Let stand 30 minutes.
5. Filter the mixture through a 30 mesh and applied properly.
6. If its necessary, for workability, add a maximum of 1/8 gallon of UNIPOXI or JETPOXY 100
thinner per gallon of prepared paint, and stir the mix again.
7. Apply a wet coat in even, parallel passes with 50 percent.
8. Apply prepared paint before exceeding the pot life time.
9. Recoat within the recommended recoat window.
10. For cleaning application equipment use solvent UNIPOXI or JETPOXY 100.
