Awlgrip T0005Q Hot Weather Reducer/Retarder Quart

Awlgrip T0005Q Hot Weather Reducer/Retarder is a specialized solvent additive designed for use with Awlgrip and Awlcraft 2000 topcoat systems in high-temperature conditions. This quart-size reducer is most commonly used as an additive blended with other spray reducers to slow evaporation rates and improve flow and leveling characteristics when spraying in warm or hot weather.

Key Features:

• Formulated specifically for hot weather application conditions
• Slows evaporation rate to prevent dry spray and orange peel
• Can be blended with other Awlgrip reducers in any ratio for custom tuning
• Compatible with Awlgrip, Awlcraft 2000, and Awlcraft SE topcoat systems
• Improves flow and leveling for professional-quality finishes
• Most topcoats recommend up to 25% total reduction

Mixing Guidelines: Reduction percentage is calculated from the combined total of base and converter components. For example, when mixing one quart of base with one quart of converter (yielding two quarts total), a 25% reduction would require half a quart of reducer. All Awlgrip reducers can be intermixed in any proportion to fine-tune evaporation rates and flow characteristics for your specific application conditions.

This retarder is an essential tool for achieving optimal spray results when working in temperatures above 85°F or in direct sunlight, helping professionals and serious DIYers achieve flawless, mirror-like finishes on marine vessels and other high-end applications.
