Clear gelcoat is used where the appearance of the underlying laminate, fabric or substrate needs to remain visible. This product is supplied as standard gelcoat or can be supplied waxed to produce a hard, sandable finish.

Features:

  • High gloss clear finish after buffing
  • Excellent water, weather and chemical resistance
  • Suitable for use over polyester and vinyl ester laminates
  • Available as standard gelcoat or waxed gelcoat (flowcoat style finish)

Quick Tips:

  • Apply evenly to prepared surface
    • 3 coats to get to 0.6-0.75mm (24-30 thou)
  • Additional coats can be applied while the previous coat is still tacky. If fully cured, sand the surface before recoating.
  • Choose the waxed option if the coating will be left as the final exposed surface.

Technical Snapshot:

  • Colour: Clear
  • Grade: Spraying
  • Coverage: Approximately 1.6m² per kg at 0.6mm thickness
  • Catalyse: 2% MEKP (by weight)
  • Geltime: 14-16mins (25C, 2% MEKP)
