 Surface Preparation

CURE and the LABFAST® product series technical datasheets for  
information pertaining to surface preparation.
 Mixing
 Before final mixing, pre-mix part A at low speed with the  
LABTEC Universal Pigment Pod. Mix the pod until the co
lor is perfectly uniform using a mixer at low speed. Then, 
mix A and B parts together (2A:1B for the LABPOX® 30, 40 
UV and FAST CURE, and 1A:1B for the LABFAST® product 
series®) at low speed in a separate container. There is no 
need to rebalance the mixing ratios to compensate for the  
volume of part A that will exceed its part B counterpart once the 
pod has been poured into the part A. The mixing container must 
be clean and free of any outside particle. Mix thoroughly for three 
minutes using a low-speed drill (300-450 rpm) to minimize the 
air entrapment. It is recommended to activate the mixer in the 
reverse mode after the first 90 seconds for the liquid to mix from 
the bottom of the mixing can to the top. Make sure to scrap sides 
and bottom of mixing container so no unmixed material remains. 
Only mix the quantity of product required depending on the pot 
life and the working time required.
 Tip for safety yellow and other translucent colors
 To get better opacity with the Safety Yellow color and other 
translucent colors for epoxy systems only (LABPOX® 30, 40 UV), 
it is possible to use two LABTEC Universal Pigment pods for each 
US gallon of part A clear instead of one pod for each US gallon. 
However, should you consider this option, the equivalent volume 
of clear epoxy (2 x 400 ml) needs to be taken out from the contai
ner prior pouring the two pods. The objective is to maintain a  
perfectly balanced 2A:1B mixing ratio. Once this step is comple
ted, follow the mixing instructions described above.
