**Note: For Additives**

Despite these measures, some additives used in materials may not be UV stable themselves. For example, certain types of colorants or fillers may be prone to UV-induced degradation or discoloration over time. When these additives degrade, they can sometimes impart an amber hue to the material. This phenomenon is often observed in plastics, paints, and coatings that are not specifically formulated for UV stability.

The process by which non-UV stable additives amber over time involves chemical reactions triggered by UV radiation. UV exposure can break chemical bonds in these additives, leading to the formation of chromophores, which are responsible for the amber coloration. Additionally, oxidative processes can occur, further exacerbating discoloration.

In summary, Polykote Enhanced is UV stable due to its formulation, which incorporates UV stability. However, materials that lack these UV-stabilizing features may experience ambering over time as UV-sensitive additives degrade in response to sunlight exposure.

**Polykote Enhanced Installation**

**Product Overview:** Polykote Enhanced is a high-quality Hybrid formula designed for various surface applications. It is a Non-Yellowing coating designed for coatings, and countertops. Please read this user manual thoroughly before using the product.

**Preparation:** Ensure the substrate is sanded well before and in between coats with 100-220 grit and is clean, dry, and free from any contaminants before application. It is a 1:2 Mix ratio.

Mix the components thoroughly for approximately 2 minutes with a by Hand. Do not use a mixer. This will help with micro bubbles that may happen with a high speed drill. Torching can assist with popping bubbles. Note: should not be over torched or scorched.

**Application:**

Tint Polykote Enhanced with additives that are UV stable and apply to the surface using a roller, hands, or squeegees. 

The product will start to “gel” in around 35-45 minutes. 

Before applying a flood coat, make sure to sand and clean the surface well.
