Rapid Curing (RC)

Bitumen dissolved in light, volatile solvents like naphtha or gasoline. Cures quickly through solvent evaporation.

⏱️

Medium Curing (MC)

Bitumen dissolved in kerosene. Offers balanced curing time suitable for prime coats and tack coats.

🕐

Slow Curing (SC)

Bitumen dissolved in low-volatile oils like diesel. Extended working time for cold mix applications.
