How to use

Surface preparation

Carefully clean and degrease surfaces to be coated with MOLYKOTE® 3402-C LF Anti-Friction Coating.

Recommended pretreatments: blasting or phosphating. Both pretreatments increase the adhesion and service life of MOLYKOTE ® 3402-C LF Anti-Friction Coating.

How to apply

Stir MOLYKOTE ® 3402-C LF Anti-Friction Coating thoroughly before and during use, apply by spraying, dipping, centrifuging or brushing. Surfaces should be coated as evenly as possible.
Recommended dry-film thickness: 5 to 20 μm.

Coverage

When applied at 10 μm dry-film thickness, MOLYKOTE® 3402-C LF Anti-Friction Coating has a coverage of approximately 12 m 2/kg (this value does not take into account the losses generated during the application process).

Thinner

Recommended thinner is MOLYKOTE® L13 Thinner
