Application

5794E90155 Low VOC Primer Gel Coat is formulated for Spray application as supplied. Thinning is not generally recommended. For Catalization use MEKP @ 2% for gel time of 10 – 12 minutes at 77º F. Do not catalyze at levels below 1% or above 3% as this may cause gel coat defects. Apply in several thin overlapping coats rather than a single thick coat. This will help avoid sagging, porosity, solvent entrapment and other defects. Make sure the air pressure is adjusted properly, and that the spray gun and lines are free of solvent, water, and oil. Apply to a thickness of 18-22 mils wet in a minimum of four passes. Brush application is not recommended.

• Store containers indoors or under cover.
• Normal storage area temperature should be 65º F. - 80º 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.
