APPLICATION
To get a good use of the RTV-491 the following points must be observed.
1. Use a clean and dry container to intimately mix the base and the catalyst, with manual or mechanical stirring, avoiding incorporating air into the mixture.
2. Obtaining molds without internal voids advises to de-aerate the mixture.
3. The pouring of the mixture must be done with caution to avoid the incorporation of air, which would lead to the formation of bubbles.
Available in 1Kg and 5Kg silicone cans with the necessary amount of catalyst.
