Catalysts - Hardeners

All resins including GelCoat, PoolCoat and FlowCoats must be catalyzed with catalyst or hardener before use for chemical reaction to start turning the resin from a liquid to a solid, un-catalyzed resin simply will not harden. Catalysts are corrosive and must be handled with special care. The proper dispensers are strongly recommended for safe and accurate use.
