Instructions for use

Before using any developer, ensure the test surface is clean, free from excess penetrant, and dry. Residue from water-based penetrants can be removed with a water spray; solvent-based penetrants by wiping with a solvent cleaner.

With visible penetrants, cracks will appear as red lines and porosity as spots. If you see a general reddish colour or pink film, that means the penetrant was not completely removed.

With fluorescent penetrants, indications will fluoresce bright yellow/green under UV light. If you see a general greenish film, that means the penetrant was not completely removed.

If left to stand, the developer particles will settle out of suspension. JAD-2 must be continually agitated/shaken during use to ensure uniformity of mix.

Apply by spraying only (dipping or brushing will cause excessive solvent action) by aerosol or conventional spray gun. Spray in thin even layers which just wet the
surface. Too wet a spray will cause excessive bleeding and running of indications; too dry a spray will result in slow indication development, as well as possible loss in overall sensitivity.

After inspection, remove developer residue by wiping with a cloth, or use a water and detergent wash.
