High Teck™ 1020‑4 is a 1‑qt liquid urethane paint catalyst formulated for use with 2.8 VOC single‑stage 1400 Series paints. It is designed for professional body shop applications where a reliable, low‑VOC hardening agent is required to achieve durable, high‑gloss finishes on e‑coat and primer substrates.
The catalyst provides a minimum pot life of 2 hours at 77 °F, allowing ample working time for mixing and application. Flash time ranges from 10 to 15 minutes, and the coating reaches tack‑free condition in approximately 30 minutes, enabling efficient recoat cycles. Zero‑VOC formulation helps maintain compliance with environmental regulations while delivering consistent cure performance across compatible substrates.
Due to its classification as acute toxicity, carcinogen, and flammable material, appropriate personal protective equipment—including eye protection, chemical‑resistant gloves, protective clothing, and a respirator—is required. Use in a well‑ventilated area and follow H‑statements H226, H315, H317, H319, H334, and H351 for safe handling.
