RECOMMENDED LET DOWN RATIO: 2 -6% depending on level of moisture in the resin. Start with the lower amount and slowly add more until the moisture has been reduced to an acceptable level. The addition of excessive amounts of moisture absorber may effect the physical properties of the finished product.

LIMITATIONS: Interact 91-0436 concentrate is sold in moisture proof containers and must be kept in sealed containers until used.

Excessive exposure to moist air will render the product useless.
