  • Best results are achieved when air and form temperatures are above 70°F, although it can be used at temperatures as low as 40°F.
  • ApplyForm Seasoning WBusing a sprayer, roller, or brush. For stacked forms, spray on side rails, lay the forms face up on the ground, and apply the product to the point of rejection (typically 300 sq. ft./gal).
  • Watch for uniform bubbling, which indicates proper reaction. Average reaction time is 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on form temperature.
  • Keep the surface moist; do not let the product dry on the forms. Use a light mist of water or more Form Seasoning WB if necessary.
  • Remove the product with a hose or low-pressure sprayer (100 psi or lower). High-pressure washing may disturb the newly formed oxides.
  • After drying, the forms will appear dull and almost grey. If shiny areas persist, a second application may be necessary.
  • Once dry, apply a quality reactive release agent like Spec Strip to ensure a clean release.
