Clearcoat Activator, Slow

TRANSTARยฎ 6896 6800 Series Slow Lightning Clear Coat Activator is a clear, liquid activator formulated for use with slow-drying base coats in automotive refinishing. It provides the necessary chemical activation to achieve optimal cross-linking and durability on high-gloss clear finishes.

The formulation delivers low VOC emissions at 4.61 lb/gal (552 g/L) and a one-year shelf life when stored properly, ensuring consistent performance across multiple jobs. Designed for metal and primer-topped substrates, the activator works with standard polyester and urethane clear coats to promote uniform flash time and full cure without compromising flow or leveling.

Safety compliance requires a "Warning" signal word; users must wear eye protection, chemical-resistant gloves, protective clothing, and a respirator in well-ventilated areas. In case of exposure, follow the first-aid instructions outlined in the SDS.
