Products >> (2) Solvents, Thinners and Degreasers

Solvents for Electrophoretic Lacquers
(A) Flow Solvent
If it is pitting, dry coating, or for better flow promoter add this flow solvent. Please note that If Flow solvent solution gets too high in lacquer it starts to coat too quickly and too thick. Flow solvent added in increment and it will increase film thickness. It is also added to bath with slow production to improve flow.

The addition of this flow solvent would be as 0.25% of working bath solution added directly to working tank. At the time of adding to bath agitation is required. The addition should not exceed 1% of bath solution.

Special solvents are used for large baths with low turnover systems or where bath is lying idle for a long period.
