Due to the inherent bonding qualities of our epoxies, application on fiberglass is possible. Fiberglass linings need to be scourged with heavy grade sandpaper or grinding disks to provide more mechanical bonding strength. Some of our DIY clients have applied our product on successfully on fiberglass. By the time of writing this webpage, the oldest fiberglass epoxy-coated swimming pool was in service for 12 months without any signs of deterioration.

Working with epoxy is not difficult but like many other things in life its gets easier the more you have tried it. Normally most epoxy suppliers have some lecture of their product and how it's used. If you do not have any experience with epoxy and fiberglass we recommend that you start out with a design where you only need to use fiberglass tape. It's much easier to work with fiberglass tape compared to fabric and it's easier to get a good-looking result with the tape.

You can use fiberglass instead of the provided polyester skin, but we don't recommend it. While fiberglass requires less maintenance, it is actually more fragile than the skin that comes with the kit. The polyester skin will flex when it comes in contact with another object, whereas the fiberglass may crack and require extensive repair at home. If the polyester skin does get a hole in it, it is easy to do a field fix and continue on your way.

Yes, first wipe the surface with liquid sandpaper, scuff the surface with a nylon scuffing pad and then apply two coats. Rubbol DEK make take several days to dry.

You can - but you will loose all adhesive strength. At cone 04 what you have left is a white brittle material that is the alumina and silica in the epoxy, left after the resins burn off. It is meant to be used as a post-firing repair material.

Fiberglass is a cloth made out of thin glass threads. It is used to reinforce plastics and other materials. FIBERLAND uses fiberglass to manufacture all our plastic products. Therefore the correct name for the material we use is FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic), although our products are said to be made of fiberglass.

AudioFormz enclosures are extremely well made and are made of 100% solid fiberglass that is approximately 3/8”-1/2” thick!

The hair is individually bonded using the latest Ultra Sonic technology. Holly is one of the few in the Mid Atlantic to provide this advanced application technique.

A basic Epoxy system consists of two main elements namely an EPOXY RESIN and a CATALYST (HARDENER). The two elements is chemically balanced so that when they are combined, a chemical reaction will take place where the molecules of the two main elements will combine to form a new structure that will become hard and solid after a period of time. Each of these two basic elements is further complimented with additional additives depending on the final purpose of the epoxy.

Everything but the main body shell of the FIA is done in-house. We built all the molds from our own plugs. All door pieces, hood and trunk lid, and inner panels are hand laid at E.R.A. Mating of the inner panels to the outside skin is also done in-house. We don't use ordinary polyester resin, either. We spend a little extra money to get low-shrink tooling resin for better long term dimensional stability. Dealer information E.R.A. has a very limited network of dealers.

It is an asphalt shingle consisting of a layer of fiberglass to resist rotting, warping, curling and fire and helps to seal out rain, sleet, snow and ice. Penfolds, as well as installing your new roof , we want to make sure your roof lasts for years to come. Follow these tips to achieve optimum performance from your roofing system.

KLASS KOTE epoxy coating consists of two distinct components. Side A Epoxy Resin and Side B Curing Agent. The two components are mixed in a 1-to-1 ratio. A chemical reaction occurs between the two parts generating heat and turning the mixture into an inert, hard film with the previously mentioned characteristics. After the two epoxy parts are combined there is a working time (pot-life) during which the epoxy can be applied or used. See Cure Schedule heading on the KLASS KOTE Data Sheets.

For the uncured Epoxy, Acetone /MEK can be used as cleaning compound. By heating upto 175°C, cured products will get dislodged.

The main body, doors, trunk lid, hood and the inner panels are all hand-laid right here at our production facility. We use a high-temperature low-shrink resin and the best quality fiberglass mat. We don't use cloth because it will eventually print throug the gel coat and ruin the exterior paint's finish. After the main shell is laid, it is rough trimmed. Then it goes to the assembly shop where it is put in a jig where the inner panels are bonded and holes for the lights are cut.

Absolutely. POR-15 is fully compatible with fiberglass and can be used to repair cracks in gelcoat. It will adhere better than polyester resin and has greater strength. Use also with fiberglass cloth to make super-strong surfaces in rusted-out areas. But be aware that POR-15 doesn't contain styrene and thus cannot melt fiberglass cloth like polyester resin does.

The term “custom” would be more appropriate to describe the high-quality construction of our regular fiberglass models. These boats are handcrafted using the best grade of flatweave fiberglass fabrics and resilient resins available. Selective use of extra cloth layers and unidirectional fibers reinforce areas prone to impact or subject to abrasion.

The fiberglass backing gives us the ability to fit the saddlebag snug to the bike chassis. Also, the fiberglass provides strong support and a secure mounting to the bike. The fiberglass back can be seen on the 360 spin images we show on the web site.
