POLYCOR® 969 Series sanding gel coats have been specifically formulated for use as a sanding substrate. Sanding gel coats are used for FRP parts that will be subsequently painted. They can be used for room temperature and heated molding (RTM) applications. These products can be post baked at temperatures up to 285°F for as long as two hours. They may also be used for utility, noncritical exterior applications. They are not intended (nor should they be used) as a surface coat for the marine, tub/shower or swimming pool industries. They should not be used for water immersion service (boat hull, swimming pool, spa, water tank, etc.), even if/when painted. POLYCOR® 969 Series sanding gel coats meet the EPA National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP): Reinforced Composites Production. Some versions in the POLYCOR® 969 Series are formulated to meet South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) Rule 1162. Features and Benefits: - Easy to spray
- Resistant to porosity, pinholing, tearing, and color separation
- Easy to sand when cured
- Low volatile organic compound properties
- Reduced monomer losses into the air; less overspray
- Cured film thickness can be 5-7% more than other gel coats
- Less odor
They are ready to use and require only the addition of the proper amount of an appropriate peroxide to cure.Information provided by Polynt Composites. |
