Choosing the best suited product:<br />
� For the print coat, V-1065/Hi-Pro Blue<br />
is perfectly adapted to the needs of the<br />
<strong>Bronze</strong> <strong>Foundry</strong> moldmaker. The product<br />
is easy to use and will reliably cure against<br />
common materials used for the master<br />
model. Once cured V-1065 will maintain its<br />
properties long after competitive products<br />
decompose.<br />
� For the brush-on coat, a variety of<br />
solutions are available to the molder to<br />
ensure a buttery paste-like consistency.<br />
For simplicity we offer SDS Cat, a 10:1<br />
catalyst which may be used with the print<br />
coat material, V-1065. If the molder prefers<br />
to dial in a specific level of thickness, Additive<br />
22646 may be used in ratios up to 3%<br />
in combination with our standard catalyst.<br />
Finally, for those large jobs we also offer<br />
pre-thickened bases, VRM or V-1069.
