Description The Redux 100 series is a range of resin solutions used for protecting light alloy surfaces that have beenpretreated for bonding but must be stored temporarily before bonding is completed.A thin coating of solution applied to freshly pretreated and dried surfaces loses solvent rapidly at roomtemperature, sealing the surfaces from the atmosphere and protecting them from loss of pretreatmentquality for storage periods of up to 2 months.The Redux 100 series is intended for use with associated Redux film adhesives, as listed below. When usedwith the corresponding Redux adhesive, the surface pretreatment protection does not need to be removedor cured prior to bonding.

Pretreatmentmust be completed and the surfaces totally dry before the Redux 100 series solution is applied. For moreinformation refer to the Redux Bonding Technology Brochure. Application A well ventilated spraying booth should be used when applying primers.When the surfaces have dried, apply the Redux 100 series solution. The most efficient and economicalmethod of applying the solution is by spraying. Apply a light continuous coating, ensuring total coverage ofthe area to be protected, without producing a pronounced color. Do not apply too much solution. A thick coating may cause a reduction in the strength of the bond by preventing proper evaporation ofsolvents in the solution nearest to the metal surface layer. If the solution is applied by brush or roller, extracare is needed to avoid this.
