MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Stir each component to a uniform consistency. Do not vary proportions.

Be sure material is thoroughly mixed together. Thinning is normally not required.
APPLICATION PROCEDURE
Gulf-Thane CT-332 Clear Polyurethane is a top coat and is normally not recommended directly over unprimed surfaces. Apply over appropriate primers, intermediate coats, or decorative floors. Surfaces must be free from all oil, grease, water or other foreign matter. Surface should be dry and above 50°F and rising. Relative humidity should not exceed 85%. Gulf-Thane CT-332 is moisture sensitive during application and initial cure. Do not apply if surface temperature is within 5° of Dew Point. Not recommended on floors susceptible to hydrostatic pressure. Best methods of application are using lambs wool applicators or short nap rollers. CT-332 can be brushed by using pure Chinese bristle brushes. For rolling, use a 1⁄4” – 3/8” shed resistant phenolic core short nap cover. Roll in the same direction, always keeping a wet edge. Do not over roll product. For safety and proper curing, proper ventilation is necessary throughout application and cure. Any foodstuff and furnishings in the application area should be removed prior to application. When using pigmented Intermediate Coats, be sure the batch numbers are all the same to provide a uniform base color. CT-332 can be sprayed with an airless unit.
