Sealants ... Perplexing Thought
Ok late at night when I cannot sleep, I ponder something so ridiculous that off to the zzzzz's I go :
Why are most sealants sold in dark bottles, or what would be considered solid colored bottles. Is it marketing, does light effect the curing agents within them, some ingredient that likes absence of light, or is it just a coincidence ????
Zaino Z2 --- Opaque
Poorboys EX-P --- Opaque
(these two above appear to go against the grain of thought)
Zaino Z5 -- Dk Blue / Black Bottle
Klasse AIO-- Solid Red
Klasse SG -- Solid Silver
UPP -- Solid Silver
Blackfire -- Solid Black
Rejex -- Solid White
FMJ -- Solid White
Race Glaze -- Solid White
Wolfgang -- Solid Black
Anyone know the truth .... can I put this one to bed
