Description
The water paste is a green paste that turns pinkish/red when it comes into contact with water. The water paste is used to detect free water in almost all petroleum products as well as some petrochemicals. It has a toothpaste like consistency and is packaged in a 3.75 oz./106 g.
Use:
Spread a smooth, even coat of the product on the bob or gauging device where you anticipate free water to be present. Lower the gauging device through the petroleum product to the bottom of the tank and leave it for approximately ten seconds. If there is water present, the green paste will turn pinkish/red contrasting to the green color above the water level. When reading the results, please note a straight demarcation on the gauging device.
