Mixing
Tec R Release MA should be thoroughly in its container before use.
Application
Tec R Release MA may be applied by brush, sponge or sprayer. One thin layer application is sufficient for steel forms. Excess application is not only expensive but also counter productive leading to surface dusting. After the first application, subsequent applications may be done immediately after removal of mould and proper cleaning. Wood and plywood moulds may be impregnated with a second coat application when new. Subsequently only single coats need be applied.
