Description
The AcrylCast Thickener is a specialized additive designed to modify the viscosity of the AcrylCast mineral/acrylic system. It allows users to adjust the mix consistency, ranging from a pourable liquid to a brushable or trowelable paste, depending on the application. This versatility makes it suitable for vertical surfaces, detailed mold coatings, or laminating with reinforcement materials like fiberglass or fabric.
The thickener provides excellent control over flow and texture without affecting the curing time, color, or final strength of the material. It ensures uniform coverage and prevents sagging or dripping when applied to complex shapes or large molds, resulting in a smooth, consistent surface with excellent detail capture and minimal waste.
Safe and easy to use, AcrylCast Thickener is non-toxic, VOC-free, and water-dispersible, maintaining the system’s eco-friendly and user-safe profile. It blends easily into the liquid component, requiring only a small amount to achieve noticeable thickening effects. Ideal for sculptors, designers, and fabricators, the AcrylCast Thickener enhances precision, control, and efficiency in every casting project.
Instructions
AcrylCast Thickener is a water-based additive used to adjust the viscosity of AcrylCast mineral/acrylic systems. Follow these steps:
- Add small, measured amounts to the liquid component and mix thoroughly before combining with powder.
- Increase dosage gradually to achieve the desired brushable or trowelable consistency.
- The thickener does not affect cure time or final strength when used correctly.
Safety precautions:
- Use in a well-ventilated area.
- Wear safety glasses and gloves to avoid eye and skin contact.
- Avoid ingestion.
- Clean tools with water before the material sets.
- Store sealed in a cool, dry place.
- Keep out of reach of children.
