How long do I let SoyGel work?
Remember “Thicker better, longer stronger”. Generally SoyGel can take anywhere from 5 minutes to 8 hours depending on what is being removed and how many coatings are to be removed. Let the product do the work. Test the surface every 20-30 minutes until the coatings begin to soften and are ready to be removed. How long before SoyGel evaporates? SoyGel has an extremely low evaporation rate. The product crystalizes when being left on for extended periods of time or in a mild – heavy breeze. Just add a little water and the product turns back into a gel. When using BEANeStrip in outdoor applications, the surface to be stripped may be covered with plastic to help keep it from crystalizing.
