Trowelable Ceramic Compound is a high technology polymer formula combined with diamond-hard ceramic fillers, and Kevlar® fibers for added strength and impact resitance that provide an exceptionally tough surface for wear and corrosion areas. It is a two component, trowelable, 100% solids (solvent free) composite that offers a high gloss surface to eliminate sticking and turbulence. In addition to withstanding fine particle abrasive attack, It also protects against moderate corrosion up to 250ºF. ML410 is a thicker version of our Brush-on Ceramic and may be used to fill in holes and pits prior to surface coating.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Grind, sand, brush or grit-blast surface for best adhesion. Clean with CH020 Metal Prep Degreaser and wipe dry. In humid climates it is advisable to flame brush the surface to prevent flash rusting and to help the polymer to "wet out". Apply ML900 Release Agent to any area you do not want the compound to adhere to.
2. Mix all Resin and all of Hardener thoroughly until uniform in color (no streaks). Apply fully mixed material to desired surface with the enclosed trowel.
3. Working time is 25 minutes at room temperature. Material is hard in 6 hours and fully cures in 12 hours. The curing time may be shortened considerably by heating the surface to 150 degrees F. Second coats may be applied as soon as the first coat is firm (usually about 45 minutes).
