Marlin Barrier with Spatula A+B Two-component Epoxy Resin 5L 461COL569

STRUCTURAL EPOXY SYSTEM
High adhesion and water resistance and excellent mechanical characteristics. Suitable against osmosis, as anti-corrosion, various gluing, painting, layering of mats and fabrics of various fibres. 
Does not run if applied vertically.

APPLICATIONS:
• Treatment against osmosis in fiberglass hulls and as upkeep, after removing all the defective gel-coat, both as prevention by applying BARRIER over a gel coat that is apparently healthy, in order to increase water resistance.
• Corrosion-resistant coating of metals (cast iron bulb keels, light alloy parts, etc). Best results are obtained if the coating is reinforced with a layer of glass fibre 250-300 gr/sqm.
• Various bonding (it is particularly great for wood-wood, wood-fibreglass, wood-concrete).
• Layering with mats, various fabrics (glass, carbon, kevlar) for the construction of parts or reinforcing structures with high mechanical strength.
• Filling and grouting, mixed with microspheres (for filling of large areas) or glass MICROFIBRES (for added strength).
• Painting of wooden boats: diluted BARRIER is absorbed by the pores of wood's surface layer giving it water resistance and mechanical strength. It is suitable for both the hull and for topsides. It is exceptional even in varnish finishes.
