USE INSTRUCTIONS:

1.        Premix P.C. 266 in the original container prior to use to insure any settled filler may be reincorporated.

2.        Weigh out the required amount of P.C.266.

3.        Measure out the appropriate amount of material:

100 Parts (part A) : 14 parts (part B) by weight.

4.        Mix thoroughly, scraping both sides and bottom of container.

5.        Evacuate mixture at 29 in. Hg for 5- 10 minutes.

6.        Pour into mold or cavity.
