Silicone cord dipping process:
1.Dipping silicone Clear 1 layer
Dipping silicone XG-20S-1 100G
Silicone fast dry catalyst XG-KB-1 10G 10% (10G silicone to mix with 1G catalyst
Silicone thinner XG-128AH 1200G 120-% (10G silicone to mix with 12G thinner)
To dip one time and wait about 30-40 minutes to get paste layer surface dry by room temp,after paste layer surface dry to heat cut. Surface drying time depends on catalyst type and the weather. If hot and dry weather paste can dry faster.
If need hard hand feel then to dip hard hand feel dipping silicone XG-60S layer 1 time to instead of XG-20S-1.
Dipping silicone (hard hand feel) XG-60S 100G
Silicone mid dry catalyst XG-60SZB 10G 10% (10G silicone to mix with 1G catalyst)
Silicone thinner XG-128AH 120G 120% (10G silicone to mix with 12G thinner)
2.Color dipping silicone to dip 2 layers
Dipping silicone XG-20S-1 100G
Silicone color pigment 3-5G 2-4% (10G silicone to mix with 0.2-0.4G color pigment)
Silicone fast dry catalyst XG-KB-1 10G 10% (10G silicone to mix with 1G catalyst)
Silicone thinner XG-128AH 120-150G 120-150% (10G silicone to mix with 12-15G silicone thinner)
To dip 2 layers color dipping silicone ,If fast dry catalyst get paste dry too fast and waste too many materials then can chose fast dry catalyst and slow dry catalyst 50% and 50% to get paste mid dry,If weather too hot that mid dry is also dry too fast then can chose slow dry catalyst XG-MB-1.
For the second time color silicone paste dipping ,to shack and remove the excess dipping paste if needed.
