Best Practices for Dow 1890 Protective Coating

*See Terms of Use Below
1. Surface Preparation
  
  Clean and dry all surfaces to be coated before applying this coating.
2. Application
  
  Dow Corning 1890 Protective Coating can be applied as received by brushing on with a stiff-bristle nylon brush. If spraying is preferred, this dispersion can be thinned with VM&P naphtha to provide the optimum viscosity required for spraying equipment. Only normal brushing or spraying techniques are needed.
