The frequency of the need for re-mixing will typically vary between 1 week and 1 month. A visual examination of the plastisol is key in determining the proper re-mixing frequency, or if separation has occurred. The visual appearance of a clear surface layer, or the formation of sediment on the bottom of the container, is an indication that separation has occurred and the plastisol needs to be re-mixed.
