More info

The application of the activator is a very important part of the chrome plating process.

As it is a highly concentrated product, the activator has to be diluted with distilled water at the following ratio: 4% activator and 96% distilled water.

Only mix as much as approximately needed since the mixture does not keep for more than 24 hours.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USE / MIXTURE

For 1l of mixture:

40gr activator
960gr pure, distilled water

Preparation of the mixture and recommendations of use:

Shake well the activator before use.

The mixed activator should never be applied in hot or cold ambient temperatures. The ideal ambient temperature is about 20-25º c.

It is recommended to heat the mixture up in the microwave during 1-3 minutes to ensure that the activator combines well with the distilled water. Afterwards, depending on the ambient temperature, let it cool down for about 30 minutes.

Prepare the mixture in a glass or plastic (do not use polyethylene/PE) container. Make sure that the container is clean before use since the product reacts sensible on residues as well as on high temperatures for which reason it should be kept in a cool place.

Very important: the mixture should ideally have a temperature of about 20-25º c before applying it.

Shelf life of the mixture: 24 hours

Theoretical performance of 1L of activor: 20-25m²

Theoretical performance of 0.25L of activor: 5-6.25m²
