Marine Gel Coat Goes Above, Below Waterline

 

Interplastic Corp. has introduced Integrity High Performance Gel Coat, developed for use above and below the waterline in marine applications.

The line is formulated with high-performance polymers, fillers and light stabilizers for UV resistance, color and gloss retention, water resistance, and crack resistance. The manufacturer says that Integrity Gel Coat meets the Environmental Protection Agency’s Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) standards for composites manufacturing.

The manufacturer reports ease of spray-up; resistance to sagging, porosity and weathering; and quality patch and repair.

Its Thermoset Resins Division is ISO 9001:200 and ISO 14001:2004 certified and focuses on the production and distribution of unsaturated polyester, vinyl ester resins, gel coats, and colorants for the composites and cast polymer industries.
