  • SEMI-PERMANENT RELEASENEW OR RECONDITIONED MOULD PREP GUIDE

    POLYESTER MOULDED PARTS

    STEP 1 Remove all contaminates and previously used releases from mould surface with the TR-905 SOLVENT CLEANER.Saturate cloth with the 905 Solvent and wipe onto sections or areas of the mould. Allow sufficient time while area isstill wet to follow and wipe dry with a clean cotton cloth. Turn and change cloth frequently to absorb and pick-upcontaminates. REPEAT if necessary until MOULD SURFACE is thoroughly cleaned and wiped dry. On NEW orRECONDITIONED MOULDS that have been buffed with a polishing or buffing compound, first water wash to removethe buffing compound residue and wipe completely dry. Then clean thoroughly with the 905 SOLVENT CLEANER asmentioned above. Refer to product data sheet.

    STEP 2 Apply 1-2 coats of TR-910 sealer (2 coats for uniform coverage or if porosity may be present). Allow 15-20 minutescure between coats and 30 minutes after final coat, preferably longer if schedule permits. See product data sheet forapplication.

    STEP 3 Apply 2 coats of TR-900 Release (4 coats if TR-910 Sealer is omitted). Allow 5-10 minutes cure between applicationsand after final coat. Wet or dampen a clean lint-free cotton cloth with the release and apply an even wet coat on asmall area of the mould surface (approx. 2 x 2).

    Avoid heavy application on cloth that is heavily soaked or dripping wet. While surface is still wet, gently wipe drywith a separate clean, dry cotton cloth. Turn or change cloth as needed to one end of the mould and over-lap slightlyeach small previously applied area until mould is complete. Apply the 2nd or subsequent coats in the same manner.See product data sheet for additional information. Recommend trial of the TR-920 or TR-930 as replacement for theTR-900 where MOULD GEOMETRY requires some horizontal pull when demoulding and added slip action is required.

    STEP 4 Apply the TR-900 Series Release again after the first 2 pulls or releases. Then proceed with your multiple Releases andapply only as needed setting up a schedule you have achieved or determined when re-application is required. Anyminor scratches or abrasion marks will have to be treated again at first notice. Apply another coat of Release onaffected area. Any patched or repair areas should be taken through all steps and sufficient over lap of area to provideuniform release & coverage. Allow TR-910 Sealer longer cure (1-2 hours at room temperature) on patched or repairedareas.

    NOTE Always use a lint-free all cotton cloth (preferably white) when applying the solvent cleaner 905, sealer 910 & 900 seriesrelease. No synthetic cloth blends and use separate rags for the cleaner, sealer & release. Avoid any contamination ofrags and/or release container. The container must be kept closed when not in use. Material is moisture sensitive andwill exhibit premature reaction if container is left open excessively. Avoid contamination when refilling previously usedcontainers or transferring to other containers.

    APPLICATION:

    Always use and apply with a clean, lint-free all cotton cloth (no synthetic blends). Clean mould surface thoroughly of all previousrelease agents and sealers using the TR-905 mould prep solvent. Surface should be completely dry and free of anycontaminates. Apply TR-900 by wiping a thin wet coat onto a small area (approx 3 x 3ft) of the mould surface starting at anend point of the mould. (Do not apply heavily or excessively wet). While the release film is still wet, wipe gently with anotherclean dry cotton cloth, turning and changing cloths as required for proper drying. Avoid excessive hard rubbing or wiping ofthe treated surface which ensures a more uniform and effective film deposit. Apply each application overlapping the previoussmall area until the entire mould surface is complete. Repeat this for 3-4 coats to the entire mould surface. Cure time of therelease film at room temp. (75F) is approximately 5-10 minutes. A touch-up coat is recommended for the first 2-3 initialreleases to maximize mould conditioning and durability. When spraying, use a dry air source or airless spray, applying in athin continuous smooth film, avoiding excess flooding or runs. Wipe with a clean dry cotton cloth as noted in wipe application.

    NOTE: Recommended use of the TR-910 SEALER for more porous or rough Mould Surfaces and maximum performance of the TR-900 RELEASE.

  • PVA MOULD RELEASE AGENT

    Description:Plastrene No. 5 is a water/alcohol solution of Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) film forming materials. It has been formulated for use asa parting layer, for separation between unsaturated polyester or epoxy based composites and various mould surfaces.

    Plastrene No. 5 is available in clear or blue dyed grades, and can be applied by brush, sponge or spray application. Thematerial is water-soluble and is not recommended for use with resins containing or liberating water during cure (eg: Phenolics).

    Application:Residues of other PVC films or any silicone containing release agents should be removed from the mould surface beforeapplication. Any solvent wipes should be followed by cleaning with detergent/water solutions, rinsing and then thorough dryingof the mould surface.

    Plastrene No. 5 can be applied to the mould surface using brush, wipe or spray techniques, to give typical film thickness of 5-10 microns (0.2-0.4 thou). Approximately 20-30 minutes drying time (depending on humidity) should be allowed beforestarting part fabrication on the PVA film. Pre-heating the mould surface or application of hot air will speed drying time.

  • Plug PreparationsIf the plug has been finished in a gelcoat or similar polyester type product, then the following products may be used.

    1. If the plug has 600grit wet & dry scratches or finer, you may start with 3M Marine High Gloss Cutting Compound using a3M5700 White Compounding buff pad.

    2. This should then be followed with the 3M Finesse-it Liquid Finishing Compound, using the 3M 5705 Yellow Polishing buffpad.

    At this stage the Polyester surface should have a high gloss finish.

    a) If the plug has been finished with Urethane Paint, it should be allowed to cure for a minimum of seven days beforeany further work is performed on the paint surface. (May be post cured to save time. Check with the paintmanufacturer for specific details).

    b) If the finish achieved from spraying is not good enough to mould from, use a fine grade paper to remove any fineorange peel. This should be followed by buffing with 3M Marine High Gloss Cutting Compound, and then finishedwith 3M Finesse-it Liquid Finishing Compound.

    3. Once the desired finish has been achieved, the plug surface should then be washed thoroughly with clean soapy water toremove all polish and dust residue.

    4. Wipe the mould over with TR-905 Mould Prep Cleaner. This will remove any traces of solvents from the surface.5. Apply two coats of TR-910 Semi-permanent sealer. Allow at least 15-20 minutes between each application. (As with all

    release systems, the longer between coats the better they cure)6. Following the application of the TR-910 sealer, apply three coats of TR-900 Semi-Permanent Release, allowing a minimum

    of 5-10 minutes between each coat. (As with all release systems, the longer between coats the better they cure).7. Follow this up with one coat of TR-102 regular paste wax, or TR-108 Basic Non Silicone Paste Wax. (With intricate or

    complex shaped plugs, a PVA release agent may be used as insurance against hang-ups. If the customer chooses to usePVA, then TR-108 Basic Paste Wax should be used, as it does not contain silicones.)

    8. It is recommended that all such finishes are left for at least 24 hours before proceeding. (except if using PVA. The PVAshould be applied and allowed to dry, just prior to gelcoating to ensure no dust is allowed to settle in the PVA film)

    9. The Tooling Gelcoat may now be applied.

    Mould PreparationsOnce the mould has been removed from the plug, the decision needs to be made on which release system is to be used. Large mouldstake a long time to laminate. This means that the mould will have gelcoat sitting on it for a day or so, before a tie layer is applied.For this reason, it is not recommended that the semi-permanent systems are used, due to the possibility of Pre-Release in warmerweather.

    Hulls & Decks New Moulds (low production runs)It is recommended that new moulds should be left to cure for at least two weeks before any finishing or preparation work iscommenced on them. (Follow cure and hardness specifications, of Gelcoats manufacturer)If the mould finish is as required, follow release procedures below. If the mould requires additional work to achieve an improvedfinish, use the following procedures.1. Buff the mould using 3M Mould and Tooling Compound.2. If required, this may also be followed with 3M Finesse-It Finishing Compound, which will produce a uniform exceptionally

    high gloss finish, eliminating swirl marks.3. Thoroughly wash the entire mould with clean water to remove any compound residue and wipe completely dry.4. Clean the entire surface with TR-905 mould prep cleaner and dry off with a second cloth before the cleaner.

    Plug and Mould Preparation

  • 5. Apply two coats of TR-910 Semi Permanent Sealer. Allow 15-20 minutes cure between coats and 30 minutes after finalcoat. (preferably longer if schedule permits)

    6. Apply 4-5 coats of TR paste wax. (if using TR-102 regular, or TR-104 Hi Temp, allow to dry (5-10 minutes) and polish witha soft cloth).

    Note: It is recommended allowing an hour or more between coats, to permit solvent evaporation and the carnauba base to set.Allow to stand for at least 24 hours. Then apply additional coat of paste wax and leave for a minimum of one hour priorto commencing initial layup. If temperatures are below 25C, longer cure time should be allowed.

    7. With intricate or complex shaped moulds, a PVA release agent may be used on the first couple of parts as insurance againsthang-ups. If the customer chooses to use PVA, then TR-108 Basic paste wax should be used, as it does not contain silicones.

    8. Apply 1 coat of TR paste wax between each of the first 4-5 parts to condition the mould. (Then apply as needed. Frequencywill vary depending on mould design and materials used)

    9. Once the mould is broken in, you may change over to TR-210 Self-Stripping Liquid Wax. This product is applied by cloth,sponge or by spraying. The mould should appear wet when applied. Allow to dry, and polish off with a clean soft cloth.Using TR-210 will keep the mould free of wax build up and provide a high gloss finish.

    Note: Liquid waxes must be shaken regularly during application, due to separation between the solvents and waxes.

    Non-Skid Areas10. With all non-skid areas apply TR-214 Regular Liquid Mould Release. This produce is less volatile than the TR-210. It is

    slower drying and will penetrate the deep crevices within the patterns. Work into deep areas with a stiff bristled brush.Allow to dry and buff off with a clean soft cloth. (Repeat treatment to these areas with 3-4 coats).

    11. Apply one additional coat of TR-214 Regular Liquid Mould Release between the first 4-5 parts.Note: Liquid waxes must be shaken regularly during application, due to separation between the solvents and waxes.12. There after apply as necessary or when parts get tight.

    New Moulds (high volume production runs)It is recommended that new moulds should be left to cure for at least two weeks before any finishing or preparation work iscommenced on them.If the mould finish is as required, follow release procedures below. If the mould requires additional work to achieve an improvedfinish, use the procedures mentioned previously.1. Clean the entire surface with TR-905 mould prep cleaner and dry off with a second cloth before the cleaner dries.2. Apply two coats of TR-910 Semi Permanent Sealer. Allow 15-20 minutes cure between coats and 30 minutes after final

    coat. (preferably longer if schedule permits)3. Apply 2 coats of TR-900 Semi Permanent Release. Allow 5-10 minutes cure between coats.Note: It is recommended allowing at least 30 minutes before commencing initial layup. As with all release systems, the longer

    they are allowed to cure, the better they will perform. (With intricate or complex shaped moulds that require somehorizontal pull or added slip when de-moulding, then TR-920 should be used in place of the TR-900.

    Finished PartsDepending on what state the finished parts are, will depend on what compounds should be used on the finish product.Presuming the products have a good finish from the mould, only a final clean and shine will be necessary.1. the most universal product that will provide an excellent result is TR Gel Gloss. The larger trade pack is TR-500. The product

    will clean and shine the surface.2. For a higher grade finish, use TR-510 Poly Sealant. This product will put a long lasting Polymer Coating over the entire

    surface. It will leave a high gloss and provide an excellent barrier against UV weathering.
