Freshly applied Solvalitt paint films may have lower mechanical properties than designed. However, this effect can be overcome by heating the paint system to 200°C for 1 hour.
Surface dry: the dry stage where when lightly pressed on the paint film, it will not leave fingerprints or feel sticky.
Dry to Foot: The minimum time before the paint film can withstand being walked on without leaving marks or damage.
Dry to apply the next coat, minimum: the shortest recommended time before the next coat can be applied.
- Continuous heat resistance: 600 o C.
