Acrystal Thixotropizer – Highly effective additive for viscosity adjustment of Acrystal products
The Acrystal Thixotropist is a liquid, opaque, non-toxic, odorless additive specifically developed to adjust the viscosity of Acrystal products. It improves adhesion to vertical surfaces such as mold sides, nozzles, and polystyrene foam cores, enabling precise application without unwanted runoff. The use of the Thixotropist is essential, especially when applying Acrystal gelcoats or spraying with a gun.
The additive is slowly stirred in at the end of the mixing process (liquid + powder) until the desired consistency is reached. If the recommended dosage is followed, the mechanical properties of the final product will not be affected. However, an excess can prevent setting and reduce stability.
