ALWA release lacquer (art. no. 9510000) is used to release patterns and moulds. ALWA release lacquer is applied in a thin coat with a brush or a sponge. A thin coat of ALWA release lacquer can also be sprayed on with a conventional spray gun. We recommend to spray on approx. 2 to 3 layers. After approx. 20 min. a strong release film is formed. The drying process can be accelerated by hot air.
