Why Choose Flowcoat from raeK Chemicals
Smooth, Tack-Free Finish
Flowcoat is applied after laminations to give a smooth, tack-free finish. It eliminates the sticky surface that can occur with standard laminating resins, making the finished product easier to handle and more aesthetically pleasing.
Seals the Laminate
The flowcoat seals the laminate, protecting it from moisture, chemicals, and environmental exposure. This extends the life of the finished product.
Thixotropic and Pre-Accelerated
The product is thixotropic, resisting drainage on vertical surfaces. It is pre-accelerated, so only MEKP catalyst needs to be added.
Versatile Application
Flowcoat is suitable for a wide range of fibreglass applications including boats, tanks, automotive parts, and general mouldings.
Available in Multiple Sizes
The flowcoat is available from 1 KG upwards, making it suitable for both small repairs and large projects.
