RAL 2004 - Pure Orange

What Is RAL 2004 Pure Orange Color Gel Coat?

RAL 2004 Pure Orange Color Gel Coat is a made-to-order polyester gel coat that brings the RAL 2004 Pure Orange standard to composite parts. Unlike paint, which sits on the surface, this gel coat is the first layer laid into the mold, so the Pure Orange color becomes the structural outer face of the finished part itself.

Why Choose RAL 2004 Pure Orange Color Gel Coat?

Pure Orange is a clean, vivid orange that sits at the center of the RAL orange family with no red or yellow bias to pull it off-center. Its pure, saturated quality makes it a strong specification for safety equipment, consumer products, and composite parts where a definitive, unmistakable orange finish is required.

Fibre Glast matches it precisely to the RAL 2004 standard, so the color is consistent and repeatable across production runs. For physical color confirmation before ordering, the #4008-A RAL Color Book has printed swatches of all 188 RAL colors.

What Are the Best Applications for RAL 2004 Pure Orange Color Gel Coat?

Safety equipment, consumer products, and composite parts where a clean, pure orange finish with no red or yellow cast is the specification. For open-air repair work, combine with Duratec Hi-Gloss Additive for a tack-free cure.

How Should RAL 2004 Pure Orange Color Gel Coat Be Used for Best Results?

Catalyze RAL 2004 Pure Orange Color Gel Coat with #69 MEKP at 1.5% to 2.5% and apply by spraying over a properly prepared mold surface. Build thickness in 4 to 5 passes of about 5 mils each, waiting 15 to 20 minutes between coats, until the total film reaches 20 to 25 mils.

Check thickness with the #122-A Gel Coat Thickness Gauge as you go. Thin with #70 Styrene Thinner or Duratec #1039/#1040 if spray viscosity needs adjustment. One gallon covers 40 to 80 square feet. Pure Orange Color Gel Coat is made to order and all sales are final.
