Surface preparation is key to coating success. All substrates shall be clean, dry, intact and free of dust, release agents, dirt or other contaminants.
The laminate surface must be thoroughly sanded to remove release agent residues. RELEST Wind Leading Edge Cartridge is recommended for use in combination with Relest wind power adhesion promoter (I367-0080).
| Mixing | The product requires use with a static mixer. |
|---|
1. Once the cartridge is opened, the static mixer must be secured immediately.
2. Secure the cartridge to the dispensing device with the static mixer facing up.
3. Press down to start dispensing and slowly fill the mixer.
4. Turn the dispenser so the mixer faces down and discard approximately 5 s of extrudate.
