Product Specification

12 Hour: This mixture is suitable for large surfaces, outdoor work, in dry conditions and where there is not too much dust. To obtain the best results in terms of brilliance and depth, the 12-hour gilding mixture should be used rather than the 3-hour mixture. It will also be resistant for longer (stronger pictorial film).

3 Hour: This mixture is suitable on smaller surfaces for inside work or when the 12 hour mixture may not be used for whatever reason (wet climate or too much dust).

TIME TO TACK

3 hour size comes to tack in approximately 1.5 hours.

12 hour comes to tack in approximately 12-14 hours.
