Tenax Super Transparent Water Clear Knife-Grade
Tenax Super Transparent Water Clear Knife-Grade is a high viscosity polyester adhesive used to vertically or horizontally repair, rebuild, bond, and fill. Super Transparent is very smooth inconsistency, and will cure shiny, is very polishable, and colors easily to match the stone. Perfect for light-colored stones such as Carrara, Thassos, and other light/white stones. Cures in lower temperatures. Not suitable for temperatures below 32°. Recommended for interior use.

Instructions for use
Make sure the surface to be treated is dry, clean, and free of dust. If coloring, add the coloring paste to the resin before mixing it with the catalyst. An excess of coloring paste may affect the final product so use caution. The mixing ratio of resin to catalyst is 100:2 – 3 (see chart below). Stir vigorously and apply. Do not place unused products back in the can. Make sure the cans are sealed tightly after use.
