Application Instructions
Crete Lease “Bond Breaker” requires special tips and sprayers. It can be applied using the ACTECH AIR POWERED Sprayer with 110/8004 tip or a Chapin 1949. It is recommended that a filter be used in the line.
Drying Time
Drying depends on temperature and humidity. At 20°C and about 50% relative humidity, you want Bond Breaker to dry in about 30 minutes. All water-based coatings take much longer to “dry” when the ambient weather is near the dew point or the humidity is very high. Can take as long as two hours to dry when humidity is very high.
Removal After Erection:
High-pressure water, approximately 1,000 psi (7,000 kPa) or higher, removes dried Bond Breaker. If water is hot, removal is faster. The film will disappear in 2 to 3 weeks in the sun.
