FAQ
Q: CAC vs PMA?
A: CAC has stronger solvency and better leveling for high-gloss coatings, but is SVHC-regulated. PMA is a safer alternative in some regions. We can advise based on your needs.
Q: Shelf life & storage?
A: 24 months. Store in cool, dry, ventilated area below 40°C, away from fire and sunlight. Keep sealed.
Q: Documents provided?
A: Yes. COA, TDS, and SDS per batch. Third-party inspection (SGS/BV) available upon request.
