MAX GPE BLUE A/B
OPAQUE BLUE RESIN SYSTEM
1 Gallon of Resin
1/2 Gallon of Curing Agent
192 Fl.Oz. Combined Volume
MAX GPE BLUE A/B is a two-component epoxy based resin system, pigmented to an opaque BLUE color. It is formulated to provide a broad range of mechanical and physical properties that are suitable for almost all types of epoxy resin applications.
MAX GPE BLUE A/B is mixed two parts Resin to one part Curing Agent by weight or by volume (2:1). It is low in viscosity, opaque BLUE in color, and easily applied by roll coat, brush or pour applied into place resulting in bubble-free coating or solid castings.
It is self-leveling and has a 45 to 60 minutes working time, suitable for opaque coating, casting and fiberglass impregnating applications. MAX GPE BLUE A/B coating properties exhibit excellent color opacity and high gloss, upon cure.
Optimized amounts UV inhibitors, antioxidants, and stabilizers are incorporated with the MAX GPE BLUE A/B to provide added outdoor durability.
An aliphatic polyurethane coating should be applied to further improved resistance to UV degradation.

THIS KIT INCLUDES A SET OF YORKER CAPS FOR CONTROLLED DISPENSING.
Use these Yorker caps to dispense the material with ease and minimize over pouring and reduce spills. We do not recommend using
dispensing pumps. The curing agent or PART B of any epoxy resin system is sensitive to moisture and carbon dioxide, which will react with the curing agent and form carbamate crystals (salt-like crystals that form on the tip of the pump) and reduce reactivity.
CARBAMATE CRYSTALS THAT FORM ON THE PUMP WHEN THE CURING AGENT IS EXPOSED AMBIENT MOISTURE AND CARBON DIOXIDE. THESE CRYSTALS ARE INSOLUBLE IN EPOXY RESIN RESULTING IN CONTAMINATION AND CAUSES POOR CURE AND AMINE-BLUSHING.
Use these Yorker caps and cut the tip to meter the orifice of the of the tip for accurate dispensing.
When done, just replace the tip cap and it will exclude ambient moisture and air and keep the resin system viable for years.
RESIN CRYSTALLIZATION FROM PROLONGED STORAGE OR COLD WEATHER EXPOSURE
The resin component or the PART A may crystallize due to cold temperature exposure.
Please inspect the resin component for any solidified crystals which will appear as waxy solid or cloudiness on the bottom of the PART A bottle. An information postcard is included with each package.

DO NOT USE UNLESS PROCESSED TO REVERT ANY CRYSTALLIZED RESIN BACK TO A LIQUID STATE AND AVOID POOR CURED RESULTS.

Use these theoretical factors to determine coverage of an unfilled epoxy resin as a theoretical guide. Please note that this is a 1.5-gallon kit and these numbers are based on theoretical physical data. It is also important to consider the type of substrate to be coated in regards to its surface roughness and porosity or absorbency,
TO DETERMINE COVERAGE ON A FLAT SMOOTH SURFACE,
DETERMINE THE LENGTH X WIDTH X THICKNESS IN INCHES
TO OBTAIN THE CUBIC VOLUME INCH OF THE MIXED RESIN NEEDED.
USE THE FOLLOWING EQUATION:
1 GALLON OF RESIN CAN COVERS 1608 SQUARE FEET
PER 1 MIL OR 0.001 INCH CURED COATING THICKNESS
(LENGTH X WIDTH X COATING THICKNESS)/ 231 CUBIC INCHES PER GALLON = CUBIC-INCHES OF COATING NEED
50 INCHES X 36 INCHES X 0.010 (10 MILS) = 18 CUBIC INCHES
18/231= .0779 GALLON OF MIXED RESIN
USE THESE FACTORS TO CONVERT GALLON NEEDED INTO VOLUMETRIC OR WEIGHT MEASUREMENTS USE THE FOLLOWING FACTORS BY THE GALLON NEEDED:
FOR EXAMPLE:
231 X .0779 = 17.99 CUBIC INCHES
OR
4195 GRAMS X .0779 = 326.79 GRAMS
FLUID GALLON VOLUME CONVERSION |
1 GALLON = 231 CUBIC INCHES= 1 GALLON = 128 OUNCES 1 GALLON = 3.7854 LITERS 1 GALLON = 4 QUARTS 1 GALLON = 16 CUPS |

These line of pigmented epoxy were optimized for most coating, casting, and other polymers applications.
These line of pigmented epoxy were optimized for most coating, casting, and other polymers applications.
The use of an accurate scale is highly recommended for mix accuracy and color formula repeatability.
Purchase this scale with any of our product offering and the shipping cost of the scale is free.

To achieve the desired tint hue and color saturation, it is best to make a small trial batch first and use a scale to accurately weigh the color concentrates as accurately as possible to achieve color reproduction when making a large batch. All color modification is done on the PART A or resin component only.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO MEASURE, MIX, DISPENSE OR APPLY
Proportioning the correct amount is equally as important to attain the intended cured properties of the resin system. The container in which the epoxy and curing agent is mixed is an important consideration when mixing an epoxy resin system. It must withstand the tenacity of the chemical and must be free of contamination. Most epoxy curing agent has a degree of corrosivity, as a general practice, protective gloves should be worn when handling chemicals of the same nature.
