Application

WORKS EXTREMELY WELL IN CONVENTIONAL EQUIPMENT

5794C Series Envirotech Clear Marble Gel Coats are formulated for spray application as supplied. Thinning is not recommended. For catalyzation, use MEKP @ 2% for gel times of 9 - 12 minutes at 77° F. Do not catalyze at levels below 1-1/4% or above 3%. Apply in several thin overlapping coats rather than a single thick coat to help avoid sagging, porosity, solvent entrapment and other defects. Make sure the air pressure is adjusted properly and that the spray gun lines are free of solvent, water and oil. Apply to a thickness of 16 - 20 mils wet. Brush application is not recommended.

  • Store containers indoors or under cover.
  • Normal storage area temperature should be 65° F. - 80° F.
  • Use only original containers full and sealed.
  • Keep containers away from heating pipes or radiators.
  • Use a "first-in-first-out" system of stock rotation to ensure use within 90-day period.
