Suggestions for use:-

With Resin Finishes 2 to 8 percent of the crease proofing resin bath

1.5 To 4 percent on the weight basis of the fabric depending on softness and lubricity required.

ZC - WAX EMULSION N+ may be applied onto the fabric by conventional procedures by padding equipment as well as by jigger or winch. Drying, curing (when used alongwith resin finishes) and after washing may also be on the conventional equipment using conventional conditions, Fabrics treated with only ZC - WAX EMULSION N+ need not be cured
