BONDERITE® L-GP 154 RFU

Features:

• Ultra-thin opaque film forming properties
• Excellent adhesion to most substrates
• Fast air-cure times
• Ability to vary conductivity
• Spray (Ready-For-Use) version of BONDERITE L-GP 154 ACHESON (known as DAG 154)

Benefits:

• High lubricity for tight tolerances of mating parts
• Allows for a variety of parts to be processed with the same coating, saving on costs
• Allows for a variety of parts to be processed with the same coating, saving on costs
• Multi-purpose application for conductive effect on the part
• No additional solvent required for dilution

Method of use

Surface Preparation: Substrates to be coated must be clean and dry. A solvent wipe with air dry is sufficient for smooth surfaces. For porous surfaces, use the same procedure followed by heating to drive off entrapped contaminants, solvents or moisture.

Mixing/Blending/Dilution:

• BONDERITE® L-GP 154 RFU ACHESON (known as DAG 154 RFU) is supplied in Ready-For-Use form. If dilution is required, use isopropanol (or equivalent) to the consistency required by the application method chosen.
• BONDERITE® L-GP 154 RFU ACHESON (known as DAG 154 RFU) is intended for spray application, however, application by brush, dip or roller can be used. Always agitate thoroughly just prior to use.
• Typical film thickness ranges from 0.2 to 0.5 mil (5–12 microns). A coating thickness of 1 mil (25 micron) of BONDERITE® L-GP 154 RFU ACHESON (known as DAG 154 RFU) is best built up by the application of 5 coats of 0.2 mil thickness by spray application.

Application

• For small production work and prototypes, a suction cup gun may be used, if BONDERITE® L-GP 154 RFU ACHESON (known as DAG 154 RFU) is thoroughly mixed prior to spray application. For intermediate production runs or many small parts, propeller-type attachments should be used on the suction gun to ensure coating uniformity. Full production is best handled with propeller-agitated pressure pot systems, which provide the best in application efficiency.
• Note: Handle BONDERITE® L-GP 154 RFU ACHESON (known as DAG 154 RFU) as you would a quality automotive coating. Avoid dry spray, as this will cause poor adhesion. To reduce overspray, use the minimum atomization pressure required for adequate coverage.

Curing: The coating air dries to touch in 5 minutes and is ready for use in 30 minutes. Following the air dry, bake for 5 minutes at 75°C (167°F) to achieve optimum coating qualities in a shorter curing cycle.
