Time 10 Seconds

Due to its tough, tenacious char characteristics, DOWSIL™ 93-104 Ablative exhibits minor topographic change after 10 sec exposure.

Time 30 Seconds

After 30 seconds, DOWSIL™ 93-104 Ablative now exhibits noticeable topographic change, but still offers the best protection for long, direct heat exposure.
