  • Sports Equipment
  • Model Airplanes
  • Molds and Tools
Mixing and Preparation
  • Mixing Ratio: By weight 100:40 ± 2, by volume 100:50 ± 2 with Hardener 285, 286, or 287.
Application Techniques
Wet Layup
  • Description: Resin is applied directly to the reinforcement materials.
  • Best For: Prototyping and small-scale projects.
Vaccuum Bagging
  • Description: Combines wet layup with vacuum pressure to improve laminate quality.
  • Common Uses: Aerospace, marine, and automotive industries where high strength and precision are critical.

Application Tip: Mix the resin until it is completely clear with no cloudiness. Avoid over-mixing or under-mixing, as either can compromise the curing process.

Processing Temperature
  • Recommended Processing Temperature Range: 10°C to 50°C. Optimal range is 20°C to 40°C.
Curing Process
  • Initial Curing: Typically completed at room temperature (24 hours at 23°C).
  • Resin Compatibility: MGS Resin 285 is compatible with the hardener.
  • Post-Curing:Heat treatment at 50°C to 80°C is recommended for enhanced performance.
