MoldWiz® F-23A/NC

1 of 257 products in this brand
MoldWiz® F-23A/NC - A liquid external release agent that dries at room temperature forming a monomolecular film which adheres by adsorption to the mold walls and has no affinity for the resin. This selective adhesion prevents the film from easily being torn off by the demolded part resulting in numerous demoldings per release application without any necessity for washing the parts. Will not interfere with any secondary operations such as decorating, bonding, or painting

Application Method

Clean mold with CleanWiz. Porous FRP mold surfaces may require Melax mold sealer and conditioner. Apply mold release with a 100% cotton cloth. (Solvents in the mold release may dissolve synthetic fiber leaving a deposit or streaks on the mold). Wipe on uniformly using a circular motion. Allow to haze dry. Without polishing, wipe on a second coat in a small area. With a dry cotton cloth, immediately polish the wet area. Wet polishing will result in an easy-to-polish high gloss surface. After wet polishing the entire mold, repeat a second time. Wait at least a half hour before beginning to mold. Repeat wet polish application between parts gradually working up to multiple releases before re-application of the mold release.
