What is Reichhold Gloss Resin used for?

Reichhold Gloss Resin is a polyester finishing resin specifically formulated for surfboard gloss coats and marine fiberglass surfacing. Unlike laminating resin, it contains a built-in surfacing agent that allows it to cure tack-free in air, making it ideal for final coat applications.

After the surfboard has been laminated and shaped, Reichhold Gloss Resin is applied as the final gloss coat to create a smooth, durable, moisture-resistant finish. Once cured, it can be sanded and polished to achieve a deep, professional-grade shine. It is also commonly used for sailboards, small boat repairs, and fiberglass refinishing projects where a hard, glossy surface is required.
