Can different brands of solvent based release agents be mixed for use?

In general, it is possible. Although the performance of solvent based release agents varies from brand to brand, many are compatible with each other. This means that another layer of solvent based release agent from another brand can be directly applied on the surface of one layer of solvent based release agent, without the need to clean or polish the mold.

But the editor of Jianyi Chemical believes that if it is for testing, the ideal approach is to use a clean mold, because this way you can better know whether the mold release agent you need to test meets your needs! Especially for important molds or products, the cost of trial and error is really high because everyone knows that better molds are expensive. Next, the editor of Jianyi Chemical will share some methods with everyone, hoping to help you!

Firstly, use a high-quality mold cleaner to wipe a small area, and then apply a newly purchased solvent based release agent to the area. If there is poor wetting, the applied release agent will be difficult to form a film and may also show stripes or abnormal performance. At this point, it is necessary to immediately stop and reprocess the surface of the fiberglass mold. If everything returns to normal, continue operating until the solvent based release agent is applied to the entire mold.
