Usage

TR-220 has been found to be effective for a wide range of molding processes and materials which include easy release from molds made of metal, plastic and other substrates. Molding processes include cast, injection, compression, vacuum bagging, resin transfer, filament winding, polymer concrete and others. Materials readily released include polyurethane, polyester (non gel-coat), epoxy, silicone, rubber, concrete, ceramics, vinyl and phenolics.

Appearance

Light amber thin liquid with characteristic odor

Application

Apply 1-2 thin uniform coats by cloth wipe, brush or spray. Allow solvents to flash and proceed with molding cycle. Two coats are recommended in cross direction application on new or reconditioned molds. Pre-heating the mold at or near operating temperature with the release applied and before any actual molding will help condition the mold surface. Apply another coat after heat conditioning and prior to the molding cycle. Use subsequent applications as needed after initial break-in of tool. Porous mold surfaces such as (plaster, wood, pressboard, etc.) may need to be first sealed with a resin coating or heavy base wax such as TR-110 before use of TR-220.
