· For powder coating processes at temperatures LESS than 350ºF, Lab-metal may be used (even for multiple oven passes). Lab-metal typically air dries within 6 hours (depending upon application thickness and air temperature).

· For powder coating processes in which the metal parts will NEVER be subject to temperatures higher than 425ºF, for durations NO LONGER THAN 20 minutes, for NO MORE THAN one oven pass, Lab-metal may be used.

· Hi-Temp Lab-metal MUST be used in powder coating processes running at temperatures above 425ºF.

· Hi-Temp Lab-metal MUST be used if a part is to be exposed to temperatures above 350ºF for more than 20 minutes in duration (or multiple high-heat exposures).

· Hi-Temp Lab-metal MUST be applied in thin layers and allowed to air dry for A MINIMUM OF 24 HOURS, then heat cured as instructed on the product label. (If Hi-Temp Lab-metal is not completely dry when subject to heat, and if the product is not properly heat hardened, outgassing or bubbling is likely to occur).
