Product Details

Hi-Bond White exterior gel coat is used in laminating molded parts. Hardener included. Does not contain wax. Laminators commonly use PVA (Polyvinyl Alcohol) over the mold release wax before applying this product to mold. PVA seals out air for full cure.

Note, if you are repairing existing gelcoat, NPG gelcoat with wax additive we recommend instead using "White and Neutral Gelcoats" or "Colored Air Dry Gelcoats", typically used for repair work due to ease of application. The wax additive in these other gelcoats negates the need for Polyvinyl Alcohol or other air inhibiting methods.

Q: Used total boat gel coat on top deck and curbs of houseboat in May of this year. Looked great for 6 weeks, then started streaking on the vertical surfaces and absorbing the dirt. Curbs turned gray with dirt and absolutely nothing (including bleach) would whiten the surface. Has this been a problem for others ?

A: I've not had this problem, but I applied this to my inside cabin top in lieu of an old, cruddy headliner that I removed. So obviously, no one is standing on it or walking across it. Jonathan F. Sobel M illan & Sobel LLC 30195 Chagrin Blvd. #300 Pepper Pike OH 44124

Q: I need to refurbish the gelcoat of my fiberglass swimming pool. Can this product be used for overlaying the existing gelcoat? If not, can you recommend a product that can be used for this purpose?

Q: I'm exploring gelcoat over plaster sculptured figures (art) to secure strength and durability. I need to apply several coats and sand before getting to a final image. Should I use waxed gelcoat and sand and clean with acetone or dewater in-between each coat or use no wax gelcoat until I get the final image I want, the seal with waxed gelcoat?

Q: I need to apply white gelcoat to untreated Baltex Airex PXc. It will most likely need a few coats to cover the black. I would then apply a final gelcoat with wax for top coat. Q. for the no wax can I apply 2 second coat while the 1st coat is tacky? or... just use gelcoat with wax and sand in between coats then wipe with acetone?

A: Baltek is not intended for cosmetic applications and is typically used with a fiberglass skin applied. The skin is then faired with polyester filler before applying gelcoat. No wax gelcoat will remain tacky so you can apply the next coat without sanding. Using gelcoat with wax on the final coat will enable the gelcoat to fully cure for sanding or finishing.
