mechanical load and the influence of heat, a Please be advised

sufficient high basic consistency of the substrate is
required.
• Important:
The coating should be tested definitely in practice.
Furthermore a pilot series should be produced and
suitability must be tested by the end user. In case
of further orders we are assuming that the product
was tested sufficiently and released for use.
Cleaning
• Please clean machines and tools immediately with
water. Dried coating residues can be removed with
TerraWet Clean Cleaning Agent G 12/180.
Storage
• Shelf-life 12 months
• Protect from frost, heat and sun exposure
• Applies to closed original containers at 5°C up to
30°C
• Avoid mixing with other coatings or washing water.
• After opening use as soon as possible
• Storage may cause a change in viscosity.
We recommend to check the viscosity and adjust -
if necessary - with water.
• All information provided on this product (in this
sheet or elsewhere) are made to the best of our
knowledge.
• All information are technical quality descriptions,
advisory and due to the wide range of materials,
production conditions, operations and processes
do not release from own tests and examinations in
customer-specific circumstances.
Information about slip angle and heat resistance
are based on internal examinations and the
mentioned values can differ from the practice. A
correspondent quality agreement can be made if a
specification is requested.
• We reserve the right to change product
characteristics because of technical progress,
amendment of applicable law and mandatory
production-related needs.
• If an application is intended to be made under
different conditions than those specified in this
sheet, we only assume liability after having
examined the respective different conditions.
• This data sheet does not claim to be complete.

Safety instructions

into contact with skin or eyes.
• Please consider also the information given in the
safety data sheet.
• Clean and rinse immediately with water and soap if
the varnish comes into contact with the skin.
Do not use solvents or dilutions.

Environmental recommendation
• Do not allow coatings to get into water or
canalisation.
• Product residues must be disposed professionally
according to effective regulations.
• Please consider also the information given in the
