Application
SURFACE PREPARATION: To receive maximum benefits of FORM RELEASE SILVER, forms must
be cleaned of all build-up and dirt prior to application.
METHOD: Spray direct from container in all working temperatures. Apply in thin
film by sprayer for maximum protection and economy. Spread uniformly with cross spray
to avoid pin holes and uncoated areas. Puddles should be wiped up with squeegee or rag
prior to use of forms. Prior to coating plywood forms, apply one or two heavy brush
coats to edges for waterproofing protection.
Equipment should be sprayed daily with form coating at the end of each day's use
to keep concrete or plaster soft for easy removal.
Aluminum doors, windows and panels should be wiped down with form coating upon
installation to prevent cement and plaster from adhering.
Light fogging of prestress and precast forms prior to each use will produce a
clean cast with a lighter finish and fewer voids. With continuous use, forms will stay
clean.
