Review: Good price - I have used this product before, but paid almost twice the price because I purchased it from a reseller that is used by biologists (it can be used as a pad material (replacing paraffin), in dissecting trays. It's very good for that purpose. As the title implies, most people use it as protection for electronic components that are exposed to the weather. It is probably good for that also. I found it easy to use, and almost indestructible when set up. Buy it from a company like this and get a good price.
Review: B9Creator VAT Coating - Bought it for the B9 Creator. Works great. for quicker cure: I built a heat box with some old fashion bulbs as the heating element. Someone said around 140-160ish degrees is best so you don't melt the acrylic VATS. Though they are coming out with aluminum and glass ones (THANK JEBUS) that are astronomically better and easier to work with. I bought a custom VAT from someone the B9creator forums and this stuff works perfect for it. Use about 45 grams of this stuff and it works perfect for me. Look on youtube for instructions (b9creator channel)

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do you mix it. How much?**
A: It depends on what you want to do...If you want to mix it in order to get a very homogeneous material for micro-fluidic devices. Then I recommend centrifuge mixer, then manual mixing, then centrifuge mixing again  (three times), then you need to remove bubbles (the gas mixed with polymer). For that you need a vacumm chamber (60 minutes). Then to the oven 60 Celsius for 240 minutes. You can wait at room temperature one day and will polymerize anyway.If you want to use as a sealant, just manual mix 10 ml with 1 ml of the polymerizer. That will do!

**Q: what is the expiration date of this product?**
A: The boxes I received had a stated expiration date of July 2015, but depending on your intended application, that date may not be that important. Hope this helps,J

**Q: How much area will this cover?  Also, does it improve efficiency of the panel?**
A: It is optically clear so it does not cut any efficiency.  The amount of coverage depends on how thick but one kit generally does 36 cell panels very well if you are using in place of glass.  And 1 kit will do 2 x 60 cell panels if you are repairing broken glass.

**Q: can this be used to seal electronics other than solar panels?**
A: It was practically made for that purpose.

Takes 48 hours to dry otherwise did very very well. I used it to put a new floor on my 3d printer vat.
