Description:

Clear, odorless and tasteless product. It acts as a lubricant to make polish application and rubout easier. Since this fluid is inherently water repellent, it will cause water to bead up on a treated surface rather than penetrate the polish film.

Dosage:

Highly soluble in organic solvents such as aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons but is insoluble in water and many organic products. The fluid is easily emulsified in water with standard emulsifiers and normal emulsification techniques. It also can be used as carriers providing a uniform deposition of high molecular weight Dimethicone.
