VOC Content: 47 g/ltr

Drying times are indicative because they depend on temperature, humidity, & importantly air flow conditions.

Drying of waterborne products must take place at temperatures not below 15°C and at a relative humidity preferably not exceeding 85%. Out of these limits, there is a slowing down of the drying and/or formation of a less hard and resistant film. It is always advisable for drying to be forced, with air previously de-humidified and warm (20-30°C).
