Instructions for use
Yachtcare Gelcoat Filler is very easy to use. Make sure the surface you are going to fill is clean, dry and grease-free. Lightly sand the damaged part to improve adhesion and tape the area around it if necessary. Next, mix the Yachtcare Gelcoat Filler with 2 to 3% of the supplied BPO hardener. Apply the filler directly to the damaged part and smooth it with the spatula. Then remove the adhesive tape, cover the repaired area with the self-releasing film and press lightly.
The processing time is approximately 6 minutes at 20°C and after 20 minutes the gelcoat putty is fully cured. Remove the foil only after the gelcoat filler has cured. If you work carefully, no further grinding and polishing is required.
