Fiberglass (A/Asia) Sales Pty 6060 LSE Resin is a promoted orthophthalic laminating resin exhibiting low styrene emission. This grade shows excellent glass fiber wet out and is designed for use in general spray depositing and hand lay up. Long green time, low exotherm and low color in thick sections make this resin ideal for large structures or multiple laminates. 6060 LSE contains an ingredient which reduces styrene emission during lamination and in the period prior to gelation. Low styrene emission resins alone will not enable the molder to comply with the recommended atmospheric styrene levels, but with appropriate ventilation, these resins may assist in reducing the level of styrene in the workshop to which workers are exposed. Tests carried out to TP 261.2 (Interlaminar adhesion) show no loss in adhesion after one day delayed lay-up.

Polycor® Tooling SP gel coats are formulated specifically for mold making. These precision-formulated gel coats utilize selected resins that exhibit high heat distortion to withstand the repeated molding of FRP laminates. None of these products contain lead. They provide a high gloss and hard durable surface. These tooling gel coats are formulated ready-to-spray after the addition of the proper amount of an appropriate methyl ethyl ketone peroxide catalyst. They are formulated to be low in hide so that imperfections can be easily spotted. Read application instructions carefully, because even though manufacturing precautions are used to make tooling gel coat, a misapplication of these products can produce unacceptable results.
