Best Practices for Elantas (Altana) MR-5002

*See Terms of Use Below
1. Surface Preparation
  
  For best surface finish of the cast part, lightly buff the inside of the mold with a clean, lint-free cloth after drying the release agent. It is recommended that the release be reapplied after each demold cycle to prevent sticking.
2. Application
  
  Apply CONAP® MR-5002 to clean molds by dip, brush, spray, or slosh. Dry excess release from the mold and air dry 10-15 minutes, or bake 5 minutes at 140°F.
3. Clean-Up
  
  Clean metal molds with acetone or MEK. Clean plastic molds with isopropyl alcohol.
