Pot Life:

Pot life for CeRam-Kote 54® TZS at 72°F (22.2°C) is approximately one (1) hour. Colder temperatures will increase the pot life and warmer temperatures will decrease the pot life. Keep cans out of direct sunlight to prevent heat buildup.

Shelf Life:
If stored in a dry enclosed area under 95°F (35°C), CeRam-Kote 54® TZS has an indefinite shelf life. However, it is recommended that CeRam-Kote 54® TZS be used within two (2) years of delivery.

Storage Conditions:
As long as the material is stored under its flashpoint (65°F, 18°C), there should be no detrimental effects. If the coating is stored at temperatures higher than 65°F or 18°C, it is important to ensure the containers for Part A are sealed to limit the amount of vapor pressure build-up and limit the amount of solvent release. If the coating is stored at below freezing temperatures (32°F or 0°C) some resin crystallization may occur. Once the coating temperature is brought back to above freezing, the resin will return to normal. CeRam-Kote recommends the coating to be warmed to 40 - 50°C to revert any crystallization that may have occurred. This will have no detrimental effects to the properties of CeRam-Kote TZS.

Safety:
See individual product label for safety and health data. A Material Safety Data Sheet is available upon request.
