Features
- Delivers excellent water and oil repellency performance.
- Prevents penetration of stains such as sauce, coffee, wine and ink into the fabric.
- Also exhibits high repellency against solid stains.
- Resistant to washing and dry cleaning.
- Preferred for outerwear, upholstery, curtain, umbrella and tent fabrics.
Performance note
Unfixed dyestuff, carrier and alkaline residues, as well as starch, finishing and washing agents, may reduce water–oil repellency performance.
Application
- Can be diluted at any ratio with cold, slightly acidic water.
- 0,5 g/L citric acid may be added to enhance performance.
- Condensation conditions are critical for water–oil repellency performance and wash and dry-clean durability.
- Dried fabric must be held for at least 3 minutes at 140 °C or 45–60 seconds at 170 °C.
