Product Data Sheet

PB Resin
Modified Epoxy Resin

Description:
PB Resin is a two-part modified epoxy resin that can be applied in clear form, or mixed with lettering enamels to quickly and easily create a high gloss color finish. PB Resin will create an ultra smooth surface on Precision Board, any density, with no priming and no sanding. PB Resin can also be applied to polystyrene, wood, stone, steel, aluminum, and almost any other substrate.

Application:
A smooth, opaque finish can usually be achieved on flat surfaces in one coat. No priming, no sanding! Rough areas may need two coats. Application must be done on level working surface.

The ratio of PB Resin part A to B is 50:50. The resin must be thoroughly mixed for two minutes minimum. Accurate ratio and complete mixing is very important to ensure proper resin cure. If resin is not completely mixed it will not cure and will remain soft. If this occurs it must be removed and reapplied.

PB Resin can be tinted to any color using standard oil based paints or lettering enamels. Add a small amount of desired color directly into mixed resin. About 1 tsp. per 8 oz. Mix for 1 minute. Place drop on printed page. If you can read print, add a little more color, mix well.

PB Resin can be applied directly from the mixing cup or from a squeeze applicator bottle. Apply resin directly to unpainted surface and allow it to completely flow out. Assist flow out with stir stick, etc. The resin’s high surface tension keeps it from going over the edge.

Wait 24 hours before applying gold leaf, lettering enamels, or etc. If second coat is required, wait for complete cure of first coat. Wait minimum of 4 hours prior to moving the coated item.

Air bubbles formed during the application process are easily removed by spraying a fine mist of denatured alcohol over the affected area. Bubbles must be removed two to three times as they re-appear. Multiple light sprayings are best. Do not add additional resin after alcohol has been applied.

Working Time
After PB Resin has been thoroughly mixed for about 2 minutes the working time is approximately 25 to 35 minutes. The hotter the temperature the shorter the working time.

Do not mix a new batch of PB Resin into an older batch of resin. It will not flow out and the cure will be inconsistent.

Clean Up & Storage
Clean hands with warm, soapy, water. Tools used can be cleaned with mineral spirits. Store PB Resin in a cool place and keep out of sunlight.
