One of the important aspects of UFO Drip
Chain Coating is the application.
One characteristic of UFO Drip is its
viscosity is dependent on temperature.
At 75°F/25°C, which is mostly room temperature,
it’s very thin and transparent. At lower temperatures it becomes thicker.
This does not affect the performance of UFO Drip Chain Coating. Today we're gonna take a brand-new
bottle of UFO Drip and this is at about
74°F/23°C in here.
Take the lid off. You'll see the factory
seal is still on. The easiest way to
open up a bottle of UFO Drip is to take
the nozzle and simply pierce the factory seal.
There might be a little bit of UFO Drip
on the top - wipe it off.
Do NOT remove the white foam factory seal. Screw the lid back on.
So, I am going to show you what UFO Drip looks like at room temperature. As you can see, it's very thin,
light viscosity, almost transparent.
Now to show you the difference, this is a bottle of UFO Drip and it should be right about 64°F/18°C,
and this is about the coolest that we recommend applying UFO Drip.
Give it a quick shake. Now, you will notice the difference, this is 64°F/18°C.
And you know it’s thicker, it’s more opaque. However, whether it’s thin like this or thicker,
again, it does not affect the performance or the efficiency or friction of the UFO Drip Coating.
Now, I want to put this on chain so you can see what it looks like
when it goes on the chain at a cooler temperature.
One thing that you'll notice is there
are some solid particles that are on top
of the chain and this does not matter.
It's the liquid that penetrates the
chain which is very important. The solid
particles are dissolved in a
hydrocarbon carrier and when the liquid
penetrates into the chain the carrier is
dry leaving the solid particles. So, again,
if you have solid particles left resting
on the chain after an application of the
coating, that is okay.
