Clean Up & Storage

Pot life: Pot life will depend on local humidity conditions and the length of time the coating is exposed to moisture. Though providing the can is resealed well and only opened for limited periods at a time the average life is approximately 1-2 months.

Solvent: Use only KBS #1 Thinner. The use of other solvents can cause premature coating failure and or lost of adhesion.

Storage Requirements: Store in cool dry conditions away from direct sun light 41-95°F (5-35°C)
