Mipa WBS Accelerator speeds up the drying process of waterborne 1K and 2K paints. It can be used in place of Mipa WBC Thinner to reduce drying times when conditions are less favourable, including lower temperatures and higher humidity. That makes the accelerator useful when waterborne coating work needs a faster process without moving away from the correct Mipa waterborne system materials.
WBS Accelerator is a special reducer that can adjust viscosity while accelerating drying. The higher the accelerator proportion, the faster the drying effect becomes within the limits of the technical information. The time for initial drying can be reduced by up to 50 percent compared with VE water. This can help improve process flow when flash-off speed is too slow for the job conditions.
The formula is free from glycols, heavy metals and alkyl phenol ethoxylate. It contains VOC, so the final mixture and local VOC rules still need attention. Adding WBS Accelerator affects the VOC value, and processed topcoat mixture must be used within the specified time after addition. Correct use matters because accelerators can change drying, viscosity and processing behaviour.
Use Mipa WBS Accelerator only with compatible waterborne Mipa materials and follow the technical data for dosing. Do not treat it as a universal cleaner or standard thinner. It is a system additive for situations where faster waterborne paint drying is needed while still keeping the paint mixture workable for application.
Use Mipa WBS Accelerator to speed up drying of compatible waterborne Mipa paints, especially when lower temperature or higher humidity slows the normal flash-off process.

Can WBS Accelerator replace WBC Thinner?
WBS Accelerator can be used instead of Mipa WBC Thinner where suitable, while also adjusting viscosity.
Does it affect VOC value?
Yes. Adding WBS Accelerator affects the VOC value of the mixture.
