Note:

-----

1. It is recommended to prewash the substrate to be treated with 1 g/l Saragen-DAM at 80-85 deg.C for 20-30 min. to remove traces of residual impurities to get excellent results.

2. After padding and drying if fabric is kept overnight before curing, results will be further improved.

3. Water and Oil repellent can be combined with Wrinkle free finish. (Pre-trials are recommended)

To pass Cone test or Bundesmann Testing, please ensure following points for better results-

1. Fabric should be very well pre-treated (Highly Absorbent, no residual wetting agent present on the fabric)
