Duratec® Reducer

What Is Duratec® Reducer?

Duratec® Reducer is the dedicated thinner and reducer for Duratec® products. Made from urethane-grade solvents rather than standard lacquer thinner, Duratec® Reducer matches the original solvent cut of Duratec products, which assures complete compatibility.

Using the matched reducer rather than a generic thinner is what keeps a Duratec primer or additive performing as formulated.

Why Choose Duratec® Reducer?

Because Duratec® Reducer is urethane-grade and matched to the Duratec solvent system, it enhances flow and leveling and reduces orange peel and porosity, instead of disrupting the chemistry the way an off-the-shelf lacquer thinner can.

Duratec® Reducer also allows reduced air pressure during spraying, which reduces overspray and produces a smoother spray flow.

What Are the Best Applications for Duratec® Reducer?

Duratec® Reducer is the correct thinner wherever a Duratec product needs to be brought to spray viscosity, such as reducing #1041 Duratec® Gray Surfacing Primer 5% to 15% for spraying. Use it wherever flow, leveling, and a smoother finish are needed with Duratec products.

How Should Duratec® Reducer Be Used for Best Results?

Duratec® Reducer is added to the Duratec product to reach spray viscosity, then sprayed at reduced air pressure to cut overspray and improve flow.

Because it matches the original solvent cut of Duratec products, it integrates without compromising the cure or performance of the product being thinned.
