Frequently Asked Questions
What is marine epoxy?
Marine epoxy typically refers to marine-grade epoxy systems developed specifically for marine environments where the cured surface may have frequent exposure to water and chemicals, such as fuel and solvents.
What makes your epoxy resins suitable for high-temperature environments?
What’s the proper way to use a syringe or cartridge?
The resin and curing agent are highly pigmented to help identify correct mixing, especially at the start. To use, first condition the cartridge at 20°C to 25°C. Remove the cap nut and plug, then squeeze out the material until the hardener and resin are at the same level. Attach the mixer and secure it with the cap nut. Discard the first 5-15 grams until the color becomes uniform. For detailed instructions, refer to the TDS (Technical Data Sheet).
Do you offer technical support for using your epoxy products?
Is it possible to paint over epoxy once it has cured?
After curing completely, the epoxy can be sanded and then painted.
Is it Fuel/Gasoline resistant ?

What is the recommended storage method for marine epoxy?
The recommended storage method for marine epoxy is to keep it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. Store it at temperatures between 15°C and 25°C (59°F to 77°F) to maintain its effectiveness. Ensure that the containers are tightly sealed to prevent moisture or air from entering, which could affect the quality of the epoxy. Always check the manufacturer’s guidelines for any specific storage instructions.
What can I do if my resin starts thickening ?
If your resin starts thickening, there are a few steps you can take to restore its consistency. First, try warming it up to around 20-25°C (68-77°F), as this can help bring it back to a more fluid state. Be careful not to overheat it, as excessive heat can affect its properties. If it’s in a container, give it a good stir or shake to break up any thickened areas. In some cases, the resin may still be usable even if slightly thickened, so you can proceed with mixing, ensuring you follow the correct ratios.
