SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Wear lab coat, gloves (we recommend PVC Examination Gloves), face shield or
goggles. Face shield is required if spraying. Apply in ventilated hood.
• Use specialized containers recommended for dispensing and application. A system for
avoiding spills includes: Catch pan, waxed paper, or plastic drop cloth.
• Label disposal materials.
• Wear dust mask when sanding finished parts.
• Read the Material Safety Data Sheet for Z-Max prior to the use of this material.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
• When using the 250 gm Z-Max kit simply pour the entire contents of the Z-Max
Hardener container into the Z-Max Resin container and mix the two parts thoroughly for
two minutes prior to application. If less than 250 grams is desired, follow the
instructions for mixing by weight or volume.
• Mix 100 parts Z-Max Resin to 37 parts Z-Max Hardener
by weight or 100 parts Z-Max Resin to 41 parts Z-Max
Hardener by volume. Mix the two parts thoroughly for
two minutes before application. The material has a
working time of 35 minutes in a 425 gram mass. Please
be aware of the gel time while preparing quantities of
material as the gel time decreases as the quantity of
material increases. It is recommended not to mix
quantities over 425 grams.
GENERAL APPLICATION NOTES
• Material can be brushed or sprayed.
• Material will penetrate between 0.079-0.28 inches (2 – 7 mm).
• Material will pool off the part during curing, if it is over-applied.
• Better penetration depth is achieved by applying several light coats of material.
• Allow all mixed materials to cure prior to disposal.
SPRAYING INSTRUCTIONS
• Use Gravity Feed High Volume Low Pressure Sprayer (Z
Corp. Part # 14206). We recommend Devilbiss Sprayer with 14 –
18 mm tip. Other sprayers are compatible, however the use of a
HVLP sprayer will minimize the amount of overspray generated.
The Devilbiss Sprayer is available with disposable canister liners
(Z Corp. Part # 14207). and will minimize the amount of cleanup.
• Have the sprayer, parts and materials ready before mixing the
resin.
• Mix resin and pour into the disposable liner in the canister.
• Always spray in a vented hood. Use of a respirator is also
recommended.
• Spray resin between 15 – 20 psi.
• When finished, remove the disposable liner and clean sprayer
with ethyl alcohol or acetone.
• Remove the tip and thoroughly clean by hand to avoid resin build up. (Cleanup takes
approximately 15 minutes).
