C-99 is a great cleaning solvent. It can also be used to reduce high viscosity polyaspartic and epoxy materials. The maximum dose should not exceed 10%. Exceeding this amount may result is softer film development and decreased resistance to staining especially from chemicals and rubber tire printing.

The preparation method for each project is determined by a full understanding of the substrate to be coated, the chemistry of the coating system being used, the coating system thickness, and numerous other factors. The coating installer should fully read and understand ICRI Guideline NO.03732 and OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1153 before starting preparatory work. The aim, of preparing a substrate for coating applications, is to roughen the surface, remove weak layers, contaminants, dirt, debris and present a solid, clean, dry substrate for the primer.
