Although 80o C is adequate for most applications, a higher temperature is recommended for removing the most resistant coatings.

The parts are immersed in such a way to assume that they are in contact with the lower layer, which is the active one. Allow parts to remain in the product until blistering of the paint coatings.

Remove parts allowing the excess S-5055-HD to drain into the tank.

Rinse parts with high pressure tap water or steam.
