The CO2 and moisture released from propane (flame) heaters increase the development of amine blush on epoxy.

Xylene = Additive F?

Xylene:paraffin Solution The xylene dissolves the secret 15% component in Additive F, or the paraffin under discussion – xylene creates the carrier solution.  This would produce an even dispersal throughout the mixed epoxy. In theory, as the epoxy polymerizes, forming cross links, the paraffin could be excluded from the the molecular lattice.  This might push the paraffin to the surface as a very thin layer – xylene would volatilize.  The remaining thin surface layer of paraffin might protect …
