Heat question

[Mc'lovin]

Hi all,

I was dumb enough to forget my new unopened Klasse AIO bottle in my car yesterday night. This morning when I rushed to take it, the car temperature inside was really hot, and when I now shake the bottle, it sounds like it is very very liquidy like.

It is now in a safe cool area. If I wait a few days - will it come back to its normal texture and will it be safe to use it? (I need to use it in a week's time).

Thank you!

Temperature, in this case heat, increases the viscosity of most liquids, you should see how a mere 20 degrees affects Collinite 845!

Just keep shaking the bottle to re-blend its contents and I'm sure it will be fine...

Your words are very kind and appreciated, glad to help where I can....rops:

Awesomeness is now officially a new word!! :dblthumb2:

I think you meant decreases :xyxthumbs:

Klasse AIO is pretty thin to begin with, I use it in a spray bottle to apply it to a pad.

Interesting.. Thanks for the tip.

Interesting indeed. Do you apply it by hand or with a DA? (I plan on using a DA). And do you prime the pad by spraying it, or do you spray it directly onto the paint?

Thanks for the comment!

I've been applying it by hand. I spray an X on the pad and spread with my finger.

I.

II.

Which way is it, I. or II.?

-I always thought it was, generally speaking, the viscosity of a "simple liquid":...decreases...with increasing temperature
Conversely, the viscosity of a "simple liquid":...increases ...as the temperature decreases.

-It can be simply put as the determination of the speed of a liquid's molecules and the amount of time they spend in
contact/(friction) with each other.
One of the Newtonian Laws...#2, I believe.


-But...The questions, perhaps, could be:
Is Klasse AIO considered to be a simple liquid?

-I propose it's not a simple liquid; and, as such...IMO:
The "Newtonian Laws" are not applicable.

-So...as before...Which "Door" to choose: I. or II.

-And, afterall... What role does Rheology have in this scenario?

HA, you are absolutely correct! :doh:

As the temperature of a liquid increases the viscosity does indeed decrease....rops:
