Surface Preparation:

 

(A) Surface of substrates must be clean and sound. Remove grease, oil, or other foreign material with acetone, wire brushing, or sandblasting. Acid etching the surface is acceptable if followed by thorough flushing with clean water.
(B) Roughen surface by grinding or sandblasting (3-5 mil surface profile) Surface must be completely dry with a minimum surface temperature of 75° F before applying.

 

Mixing: Mix 2 parts of HUDCO CMP Metal Fix Resin to 1 Part of HUDCO CMP Metal Fix Hardener by weight.  Kits are supplied in the correct ratio. Ensure that the sides of the mixing container are scraped into the mixture. Mix several minutes, until consistent color is achieved.

 

Application: Apply product to prepared surface and use supplied tools to achieve desired finish.

 

Curing: At 75° F, product will gel in 20 min. Initial cure will occur in 6 – 8 hours. Final Cure occurs in 1 Day. Curing can be accelerated by heating the applied product to 140° F. Product properties will also be improved by curing at this elevated temperature.
