Applications & Uses
- Applications
- Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
- Processing Conditions
- Make sure stone surfaces are clean of any substance and dry.
- Measure out the appropriate amount of polyester resin, then measure out the appropriate amount of hardener.
- ext carefully mix the components together.
- Be careful to scrape the sides and bottom of the mixing cup to ensure thorough mixing. Do not ‘stir’ product.
- This can trap air and cause bubbles.
- Do not use once gelling has begun.
- Uses
Seams, edge repair, laminating stone, filling chips and reinforcement with metal and fiberglass rods.
