NixStix NB is a release agent for the no-bake process. NixStix NB incorporates aluminum flake with silicone in an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent. This produces a fast dry film with superior release characteristics. NixStix NB is supplied as a ready-to-use blend that should be mixed or shaken before use. Then, apply a thin coat either by spraying or brushing. Do not use in conjunction with foam tools or patterns.
