PREPARATION - Store and use all materials at 23°C. Avoid breathing fumes - use in a well ventilated area at minimum. NIOSH approved respirator is recommended. Wear safety glasses, long sleeves and rubber gloves to minimize skin contact.

USAGE - Epic™ Thinner is added by weight. A gram scale is required. Read and follow directions given on the technical bulletin for the EpoxAcast™ or EpoxAmite™ product before adding Epic™ Thinner.

Important - Physical and performance properties (including Shore hardness) of cured epoxy system may be lower in proportion to the amount of Epic Thinner added. Do not exceed recommended loading maximum of 10% of epoxy Part A, as the epoxy system may not cure. A small scale test is recommended if outcome is uncertain.

MEASURING AND MIXING - Add Epic™ Thinner to Part A of the epoxy system and pre-mix thoroughly before adding Part B. Mix all parts thoroughly and apply.
