- Application Features
- For the application it is recommended to check the temperature of the product, of the molds and the environment, which must be between 18°C and 25°C.
- The product it is supplied already accelerated and must be catalyzed with traditional MEKP in reason of 1.5% - 2%.
- The thickness of the wet gel coat film must be, depending on the conda of the mold and the application method, approximately 0.4 - 0.5 mm, which is equivalent to a quantity of product between about 600 and 800 gr / m2.
- In the case of “airless” or similar systems, we recommend correct setup of the system (nozzle and pressure).
- If due to its application it should be further dilution required, the type and amount of diluent may vary depending on according to the specific needs of the customer.
- In any case, our technicians are available to available for precise indications in this regard.
