Precoats are applied in many glass plants to blank and mold equipment to facilitate the start-up after a job change. Kleenmold precoats deposit a tightly-bonded lubricating film of graphite on mold equipment surfaces which provide excellent gob loading and parison release. This helps minimize lost production by allowing operators to focus on fine-tuning various aspects of production and to check bottle quality, rather than on swabbing. Additional information about special products can be obtained from your local distributor.
