MoldWiz internal lubricants are incorporated directly into the melamine, phenolic, or urea resin. There are specific types for aqueous and non-aqueous resin systems. They contribute to improved wetting properties of the paper or substrate and function as release agents allowing the laminate to release easily and cleanly from the caul plates without leaving any residue. MoldWiz internal lubricants contain no silicone, no wax, and no metallic stearates. They will not interfere with adhesion properties between laminates.

EXTERNAL RELEASES FOR CAUL PLATES
Product Active Ingredients Carrier    
AMP-50 50 - 52 % Water

Clean platen with CleanWiz.
For first time application and break-in: Spray or wipe 3 light coats of mold release.
Note: Baking is not required but will improve the durability of the release, (important during break-in to provide a durable base).

For continued use, apply a light coat as required.

EM-1212 10 - 12 % Water
EM-1212SL 11 - 13 % Water
EM-1212SF2* 11 - 13 % Water
*If possible bake at 350°F / 175°C for 30 minutes before molding.
