Marine Tex Epoxy Putty Repair Kit White - MW
Marine Tex Epoxy Putty Repair Kit - White
Marine-Tex White Epoxy Putty Repair Kit is a professional-grade structural compound built for serious marine repairs. This versatile putty bonds fiberglass, aluminum, and wood while preventing galvanic corrosion between dissimilar metals. It delivers 8,700 PSI compressive strength and 4,000 PSI tensile strength, making repairs stronger than original materials. The waterproof formula works above and below the waterline, handling hull damage, loose fasteners, and gaps with ease. Each kit includes epoxy resin, hardener, and mixing stick. It sands smooth like wood and can be tinted with coloring agents for custom finishes.
Kit Includes:
- Epoxy Resin
- Hardener
- Mixing Stick
Specifications:.
- Coverage:
- For 2 oz. Kit, 17 square inches at 1/8" thick
- For 14 oz. Kit, 124 square inches at 1/8" thick
- Mixing Ratio: 5 parts epoxy resin to 1 part hardener - by volume. When mixing by weight, the ratio is 6.3 parts resin to 1 part hardener. Always keep epoxy at room temperature before mixing.
- Cure Time: 24 hours at a constant temperature of 72 degrees Fahrenheit. Lower temperatures will create longer cure times.
- Compressive Strength: 8,700 PSI
- Adhesion Shear Strength: 2,300 PSI
- Tensile Strength: 4,000 PSI
- Chemical Resistance: Most common acids, alkalizes and hydrocarbons
Marine-Tex Application Tips:
- Surface preparation is the key to epoxy adhesion. Remove all contaminants (dirt, oil, grease) with acetone or lacquer thinner. Sand area, then remove grit to improve adhesion.
- Mix the proportioned components with a putty stick or hard plastic squeegee on a broad, flat surface-wood, cardboard or plastic.
- Mix only enough for 15 or 20 minutes of nominal working time.
- After components are thoroughly mixed, spread your mixture into a long thin line to ensure a streak-free consistency and to provide you with maximum working time.
- White Marine-Tex can be tinted with Evercoat's coloring agents for fiberglass and wood applications. Use only a small amount of coloring agent (not more than 5% of the total volume of epoxy).
