Superior flow especially in full gloss topcoats A highly reactive catalyst - Faster dry
Minimises bubbling in open grain timber Low toxic - safer to use
Improves flow & levelling in draughty &/or hot environments Longer pot life
Improved through cure in cold conditions to improve sanding and stacking times.
 Typical Applications

MIROBILD AC 3800 Universal Catalyst MIROBILD AC 3810 Quick Dry Catalyst
Ideal for use in hot temperatures. Ideal for use in cold temperatures to speed up drying time and increase production throughput.
Ideal for use with full gloss topcoats to achieve optimum gloss. Ideal for sealers and undercoats to speed up drying time between coats.

 Dry Times

Using MIROBILD AC 3810 will increase the speed of dry, when compared to MIROBILD AC 3800, by approximately 5 to 10 minutes at the dust free and print free time. The through cure is also improved when using MIROBILD AC 3810, providing earlier sanding and stacking times.

 Pot Life
Typically 2 to 3 days at 25ÂșC.  Hot temperature conditions will result in shortened pot life.

The information contained in this Data Sheet is based on data appraised in our Laboratories and on our own research, and that of others whose work we believe is reliable. Due to possible differences between controlled laboratory test conditions and methods, and actual application conditions and methods, coupled with possible differences in interpretation of results, the user of this product must satisfy himself that the end result obtainable under his particular application conditions meets his requirements. Special attention is directed to the problem of chemical compatability, as Mirotone can control only the quality and formulation of its own materials. Mirotone has no control over quality, formulation or consistency of other manufacturers' products or the substrate to which its product is applied. Therefore Mirotone supplies its products only on condition that the consumer himself is satisfied as to the performance of the product in meeting his particular requirements.
