Formula Five Mold Cleaner #2 - Solvent Mold Cleaner for Silicone, Grease & Release Build-Up

Every production mold picks up a film of old wax, silicone, grease and resin scum, and that film is what shows up later as dull parts, streaks and gel coat pre-release. Formula Five Mold Cleaner #2 is Rexco's ready-to-use solvent cleaner: it dissolves the build-up so it wipes off with a cotton cloth, with no abrasives and without softening or dulling a good mold surface. Specs Type non-abrasive solvent mold cleaner, ready to use Removes wax build-up, silicone, grease, dirt, light resin scumming, excess uncured semi-permanent release, residue from other cleaners and water spotting Does not remove fully cured semi-permanent mold release or cured resin Use on fiberglass, aluminum, steel and thermoset tooling; warm molds are fine. Test rubber molds on a non-cosmetic area first Work area sections up to 5 sq ft (0.5 m2) at a time Sizes 1 US gallon (3.79 L) can, case of 4 gallons Flash point below 0 F (-18 C), highly flammable Shipping UN1993 Class 3 PG II. UPS Ground only, lower 48 states, no air service How to use it Work in a well ventilated area with solvent resistant gloves and eye protection. Dampen a clean cotton cloth and wipe a section no larger than 5 sq ft (0.5 m2). Wipe the dissolved residue off with a fresh cloth before the cleaner flashes dry, overlapping into the next section. For heavy wax deposits, work the cleaner over the surface with a stiff solvent resistant bristle brush, then wipe. Repeat on stubborn build-up. Tape test in several spots before you apply release. If the tape grabs hard, the surface is clean. Mold Cleaner #2 is step one of the Formula Five mold care system. Polish the cleaned surface with Clean 'N Glaze, then build release coats with Formula Five Mold Release Wax or a PVA film. It also earns its place between pulls, cleaning one area of a mold before a semi-permanent release touch-up. The full shelf is in mold release agents. Safety: toluene and methanol based, highly flammable, for industrial use only. Keep it away from heat, sparks and hot metal, wear organic vapor respiratory protection if ventilation is poor, and never return used cleaner to the can or re-dip a contaminated cloth. Lay solvent soaked rags out flat to dry before disposal. Data sheets: Formula Five Mold Cleaner #2 Application Guide · Formula Five Mold Cleaner #2 SDS
