User Guide - Glisten PC Clearcoat
Product Composition Your Glisten PC purchase consists of two items: 1) a round paint can (either a pint, quart, gallon, or 5 gallon) filled with Part A, which is the basic paint formulation; and 2) a smaller screw-top cap with Part B, our Hardener/Activator. Mix the two products together. After the coating is thoroughly mixed, begin applying immediately.
Partial Mixes You may mix partial quantities of Glisten PC for small jobs, and you may use any measuring device you happen to have around (coffee scoop measuring spoons, cups, etc.). All you have to do is follow this formula: Pot Life A mixed batch of Glisten PC will remain usable for up to 24 hours, a very long pot life. On the label of your Hardener/Activator it may say the pot life is about 6 hours, but disregard that statement for Glisten PC. Application Glisten PC may he brushed on using the type of brush you prefer. It will flow out immediately, eliminating brush marks. Lay down a covering coat but be careful to avoid runs. A second coat may be applied 15 - 25 minutes later. Glisten PC may be sprayed using 3O-35 Lbs. pressure. Thin only with Xylene, if required. POR-15 Solvent or lacquer thinner may be used for cleanup. Ideal Uses for
Glisten PC As a protective coating on brass and copper britework, aluminum, chrome, ornaments, lights, railings, grills, handles, blocks, cleats, spars, etc. Laboratory Test Results Because the main concerns for a clear topcoat is length of life and resistance to various atmospheric conditions, we have subjected GLISTEN PC to the following tests:
In ASTM B-117 testing and ASTM D-1654 testing, GLISTEN PC was tested along with four well-kncwn rust preventive primers: ZINC PHOSPHATE PRIMER, BARIUM METABORATE PRIMER, ZINC CHROMATE PRIMER, and ZINC RICH PRIMER. Test durations were set at 500 hours, 1000 hours, and 1500 hours in a condensing humidity 5% salt spray solution at 950F (350C) Products that withstand 500 hours in this test are considered to be good anti-corrosive coatings.
The TABER ABRASION TEST was conducted using a Taber Abrasion machine with CS-17 wheels and 1250 grams of pressure. After 500 cycles GLISTEN PC lost 20 mg. of weight while a standard two-component epoxy lost 23 mg. Hardness was measured by a SWARD Hardness tester seven days after both products were applied to identical panels. The results are as follows:
