Intended Uses
Flattening Agent G3013 reduces the gloss of Awlgrip or Awlcraft 2000 Urethane Topcoats to a flat or semi-gloss finish.

Preferred application is by spray. Roller application will provide more uniform gloss than brushing. Awlcraft 2000 cannot be brushed or rolled.

Not recommended for application to large expanses of surface as unequal gloss and appearance may result.

Please note, we recommend using reducer T0003 to achieve optimum results at temperatures of 20ºC/68ºF or over.

Application
Application equipment and parameters are given as a guide. Actual equipment choices will vary according to application conditions, equipment condition and other factors Testing on a non-critical area should be carried out prior to full-scale preparation 

This product is an additive component. See instructions and recommendations for the primary product.

Spray application is recommended when using Flattening Agent G3013. Apply 3 full coats, 75 microns WFT each (Tip size 1.2). Mist coats will result in rough appearance.

The friction from brush and roller applications sometimes shears the G3013 causing areas of high and low gloss. If you absolutely cannot spray, rolling is preferred to brushing. AWLCRAFT® 2000 cannot be brushed or rolled.
