PRODUCT PREPARATION:
IMPORTANT!! LIQUID PRT9000 DOES NOT MIX WITH OTHER MATERIALS!!!
Make sure you flush your system thoroughly with water before and after using ELPRT9000. If you load any other product into your system after PRT9000 without a water rinse you will cause resin to kick out leaving grit in your finish and causing signficant clogging. Reduction is generally not required. Product should be at room temperature and mixed thoroughly prior to finishing to ensure consistency.
