All-Round Epoxy Casting Resin

This All-Round epoxy resin is widely used in boat building and manufacturing. Because this resin can be used as laminating resin, glue, casting resin and coating, it is widely applicable. This epoxy can be processed in combination with wood, concrete, fiberglass, aramid fibers, basalt fibers and carbon fibers. The low viscosity means that the resin can impregnate well with the various fibers. After curing, the epoxy is very strong and impact-resistant.

Use this epoxy to laminate a whole side or to lamiante a car bumper, use it to glue together many different materials, or use it as a lacque for your art work. You can also do some casting with it and make your own paper weight or orgonite...

This epoxy is solvent-free

Processing

Please always use proper protection and read safety instructions. Mix A and B component in the weight ratio A:B = 100:50 very carefully. Please make sure the bottom and sides are mixed in well too. To be extra sure you can pour the mix into a second mixing cup and continue mixing. When casting the product into the mould try not to scrape the bottom and sides as the product there might be mixed less then the rest.

Please use a brush or paint roller to apply the epoxy when laminating. If you want to use the resin as a glue or as a filler, we advise to thicken the product using a filler (silica, wood fibres etc)

Processing time
The processing time is measured for 100 grams of product at 20^oC. The processing and curing time depend on the amount of product processed and the (ambient) temperature / start temperature of the product. More product will generate more heat and a higher temperature will increase the curing speed. This will shorten processing time and curing time. Lower temperatures and smaller amounts will increase working time and demould time.

Storage

It is best to store this product between 18^oC en 28 ^oC in a closed container.

Please use materials once opened as a quickly as possible. When stored as indicated, the shelf life is at least 6 months.

Epoxy (even UV stabilised) will yellow slightly. This will not influence any of the other properties. Epoxy products will be usable for many years.
