Application

Ebotan PCK distributes and fixes the chrome in the rechroming. It provides uniform pH in the neutralization, resulting in a soft handle. Rubbery feeling is enhanced in the retanning along with acrylic syntans. In the low chrome and wet White, it improves and accelerates the retanning system.
