This marine-grade gelcoat provides excellent abrasion resistance, stain resistance, and long-term durability in harsh marine environments.
Formulated for consistent spray application and reliable curing with MEKP catalyst, 1513 Clear Gel Coat is commonly used in boat manufacturing, fiberglass part production, and marine repair work where a tough protective outer surface is required.
- Clear marine gelcoat for fiberglass and composite parts
- High-performance NPG / Isophthalic resin system
- Excellent abrasion and stain resistance
- Fast cure when catalyzed with MEKP
- Ideal for marine manufacturing and fiberglass repair
1513 Clear Marine Gel Coat
1513 Clear Marine Gel Coat is a high-performance clear gelcoat designed for marine fiberglass applications where durability, appearance, and protection are critical. Built on an advanced NPG/Isophthalic resin backbone, this gelcoat produces a hard, abrasion-resistant surface capable of withstanding harsh marine environments.
This clear gelcoat is commonly used in boat building, fiberglass manufacturing, and marine repair applications. When applied correctly and catalyzed with MEKP, it forms a durable protective layer that resists staining, surface wear, and environmental exposure.
