Resonac D
Water Based Vibration Damping Compound

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
1.	Surface Preparation
	The produce has been specially formulated to provide high adhesion to difficult substrates such as uncoated Aluminium. However, the surface must be prepared as if for painting eg:

	· Remove any dust, dirt, oil, grease, rust, mould-release agent, etc. from the surface.
	· Abrading the surface by wire brushing, sandblasting or abrasive paper is recommended for highly polished surfaces, to obtain the best
	possible adhesion
	· Degrease the surface using a solvent wipe of Xylene, Toluol, Trichloroethylene, Methylene Chloride or similar solvent.
	· On mild and carbon steel, a rust preventing prime coat shall be applied.

2.	Mixing
	Resonac D is shipped at proper viscosity. If a thinner consistency is needed for spray by an air gun or body deadener gun, add a small amount of methylated spirits or water (a maximum of 5% by weight) and stir te product thoroughly.

3. Coating Thickness (Wet Film) Required for Effective Damping

Note :	(1) T = Subtrate Thickness
	(2) The spread rate (litres/m²) = the coating thickness, for example, the spread rate for 3mm thick coating is 3 litres per m²

4.	Application Rate and Coverage
	· Maximum 3mm wet film per coat. Allow to dry before next application.
	· Drying time at 20ºC and 3mm thickness is 24 hours approximately. Accelerate by heating to a maximum of 70ºC.
	· Cover a minimum @ 80% of total area.
	· Small cracks may develop upon drying, however, these will not affect the performance.
