ccording to industr y experts, look ing for a
consistent color in your coatings can help
you gauge whether or not the parts are mixed
correct ly. Some coat ings require t hat you
mechanically mix them in a container. Consider using
your eyesight as a secondary check for the right mix on
these types of coatings. Mix the two parts together until
the color looks completely homogenous, but be sure not
to mix for too long if pot life is a concern. The appearance
of a consistent color, though not foolproof, can work as a
check to make sure you've got a proper mix. What you see
is most likely what you'll get! CP
Don't face a coating
failure due to salts.
