Color Gel Coat
Our Color Gel Coats are mixed to perfectly match the color of your choice. In addition to our RAL colors, we have 720 more colors of Gel Coat available when you call in.
Color Gel Coat is designed to be used in mold to produce UV resistant, blister resistant, high-quality parts when laying up polyester or vinyl ester parts. They can be used in repair applications with an air inhibitor such as Duratec High Gloss Additive.
Color Gel Coats are available in quart, gallon or five-gallon sizes. Gel Coat kits are available in quart, gallon and 4-gallon cases and come with (#69) MEKP catalyst. One gallon of gel coat will cover approximately 40-80 square feet, depending upon application.
What Is RAL 5021 Water Blue Color Gel Coat?
RAL 5021 Water Blue Color Gel Coat is a polyester gel coat precision-formulated to the RAL 5021 Water Blue standard. Gel coat goes into the mold first, before any reinforcement, and becomes the finished outer surface of the part. Because the Water Blue color is in the gel coat resin itself, it is part of the surface permanently rather than a topcoat that can be worn away.
Why Choose RAL 5021 Water Blue Color Gel Coat?
Water Blue is a fresh, clear blue with a bright, aquatic quality that references the color of clean, clear water. Its clarity and freshness make it a natural specification for marine composite parts, consumer products, and exterior panels where a clean, water-inspired blue finish is required. Fibre Glast matches it precisely to the RAL 5021 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 5021 Water Blue Color Gel Coat?
Marine composite parts, consumer products, and exterior composite panels where a fresh, clear water blue finish is the specification. It can also be used for open-air repairs when combined with Duratec Hi-Gloss Additive.
How Should RAL 5021 Water Blue Color Gel Coat Be Used for Best Results?
RAL 5021 Water Blue Color Gel Coat requires careful film build for best results. Catalyze with #69 MEKP at 1.5% to 2.5% and spray over a properly prepared mold surface. Apply 4 to 5 coats of about 5 mils each, allowing 15 to 20 minutes between coats, building to a total of 20 to 25 mils. The #122-A Gel Coat Thickness Gauge helps keep film build consistent across the part. Thin with #70 Styrene Thinner or Duratec #1039/#1040 as needed for spray viscosity. Coverage is 40 to 80 square feet per gallon. This is a made-to-order color and all sales are final.
