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 6009 Fir Green Color Gel Coat?
RAL 6009 Fir Green Color Gel Coat is a made-to-order polyester gel coat that brings the RAL 6009 Fir Green standard to composite parts. Unlike paint, which sits on the surface, this gel coat is the first layer laid into the mold, so the Fir Green color becomes the structural outer face of the finished part itself.
Why Choose RAL 6009 Fir Green Color Gel Coat?
Fir Green is a deep, rich green named after the dense, dark foliage of fir trees. It has more depth and warmth than the cool bottle greens, and its natural quality makes it a strong choice for premium decorative composite parts and architectural panels. Fibre Glast matches it precisely to the RAL 6009 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 6009 Fir Green Color Gel Coat?
Decorative and architectural composite panels, high-end marine parts, and premium outdoor composite structures are where Fir Green is most commonly used. Its depth and warmth give finished parts a refined, nature-inspired character. It can also be used for open-air repairs when combined with Duratec Hi-Gloss Additive to allow tack-free curing.
How Should RAL 6009 Fir Green Color Gel Coat Be Used for Best Results?
Catalyze RAL 6009 Fir Green 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. Fir Green Color Gel Coat is made to order and all sales are final.
