This document describes the proper application LESS-FIRE's
Class ‘A’ by the Consumer.
LESS-FIRE's
Class ‘A’ is a topical flame retardant that can be applied by the Consumer (although not recommended). The Consumer will get varying degrees of protection dependant upon application procedure. As with all after-market products, test the product in an inconspicuous section of the material.
Compliance Statement:
LESS-FIRE's
Class ‘A’ when properly applied to wood materials by a qualified applicator meets or exceeds ASTM-E-84 Standards for Class A Flame Retardant.
Proper Application:
The most effective application of LESS-FIRE's
Class ‘A’ is done by total immersion of the material in the product. After soaking for approximately 2 minutes or more (complete soaking of all portions of material), drip dry, air dry, or kiln dry. Pay special attention to stacking of wood because of product adhesion. Use stack strips to space materials.
The second most effective application LESS-FIRE's
Class ‘A’ to apply the product to the wood material being treated using a spray applicator, roller or paint brush. The wood should be completely covered where protection is required. Over application of product will not harm the application, but will consume more product. Drip dry, air dry, or kiln dry. Pay special attention to stacking of wood because of product adhesion.
Wood material may be treated with less spray than above, but WILL have substantially LESS flame resistance than the above and may not meet the standards required.
Warrantee:
The Consumer is completely in control of the application of LESS-FIRE's
Class ‘A’. Southern Polymer Tech, and its distributors, will not be liable for any loss caused by combustion of materials treated by this product.
It is strongly recommended that a qualified person treat and test the material to assure proper flame resistance. LESS-FIRE will attempt to direct the Consumer to a qualified applicator upon request.
