Metal Products Company Experience:
“We keep finding more and more ways to utilize it out in the shop, to our advantage. With one job in particular, a very difficult job to run, the operator / set up person, generally has to stop the job every few minutes to clean the aluminum pick up out of the die. I gave him the Punch Compound and told him that the next time he cleaned out the die, put a thin coat of the Punch Compound in the die, make a part, then repeat the same thing again. I went out there later to check on his progress and he told me the part ran much better. He was able to run a whole container full of parts without stopping. To him, it was like a miracle compared to his previous results.”
