Product Preparation & Application


Material Preparation:   Catalyze Gem Seal Conversion Sealer with pre-packaged catalyst kit.  Mix or agitate thoroughly before use. Reduction may be required for certain types of application. SOL-9011 HAPs Free Thinner should be used for reduction. If slower dry time is required, only use SOL-9012 HAPs Free Retarder.

Application:   We recommend a coating system comprised of one coat of 210-0008 applied at 3-4 mils wet film build and 1-2 coats of topcoat applied at 3-4 mils wet film build.  Apply with conventional, air assisted airless, HVLP or airless equipment. For airless equipment, pressure may need to be increased due to high solids content.

Clean-up:   Use #500 Gem Coat Lacquer Thinner or SOL-9011 HAPs Free Lacquer Thinner to clean all equipment. Dispose of in accordance with Federal, State, and Local regulation regarding pollution.
