Honey Wax Plus Mould Release

Honey Wax Plus is a high gloss mould release wax with excellent temperature resistance that exceeds most other release agents. This versatile wax provides a smooth and hard release film that is non-staining and resistant to abrasion, even under heavy use. The ease of application makes Honey Wax Plus an indispensable choice for processes where high temperatures are essential.

The firm, waxy film makes Honey Wax Plus ideal for treating new moulds and plugs, providing reliable results for long-term protection during the production process.

Benefits of Honey Wax Plus

• Universally applicable.
• Composition based on pure carnauba wax.
• Silicone free and filler free.
• Durable and wear-resistant (lasts longer than processed waxes).
• Withstands higher temperatures, ideal for high exotherm resins.

Instructions for use

To properly process Honey Wax Plus, please follow the instructions below.

1. Clean the surface of the mould
   The mould surface should be thoroughly cleaned of all contaminants such as oils, grease, wax, dirt, or previous release agents. The cleaned surface should be completely dry. 

2. Apply the wax                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     Apply a thin, even film of Honey Wax using circular motions and making sure there is complete uniform coverage. Use an applicator sponge or a clean, dry microfibre cloth.

3. Allow the layer to become cloudy
   The coating should be left to haze completely. This process should take approximately 2-15 minutes depending upon ambient temperatures and humidity. Hazing is an important step, as all the solvents should evaporate completely before buffing. The wax film should be totally dry.

4. Buff the wax layer
   Buff the surface to a luster using a fresh, clean absorbent cloth or micro fiber towel as soon as the wax film is totally dry.

5. Apply additional layers
   Wait approximately 10 to 15 minutes before applying another coat of Honey Wax Plus. Five to seven applications initially will effectively fill the pores and coat the mould surface. The number of coats depends upon the porosity of the mould.

6. Repeat after each release
   Once a part is pulled, apply two more coats of Honey Wax Plus.

7. Maintenance for frequent releases
   For the third part, a single application will suffice. From this point on, multiple pulls can be achieved. If a new mould is being put into service and moulding is done with a polyester resin, it is recommended that PVA be used over the 5-7 coats of Honey Wax for the first 2 moulding cycles. This is not necessary if the mould is seasoned and being reconditioned.
