Safety rules¶
Technical and safety data sheets are linked for each material. The technical data sheet provides operational data such as technical specifications and processing recommendations. The safety data sheet describes the various hazards associated with the material and the risk levels.
Only Smooth-Cast™ 300 Series and SORTA-Clear™ Series will be used for our molds.
Read the safety instructions carefully before using these products. Wear gloves and goggles.
