The clearest choice for filling and sealing cosmetic composite layups
TotalBoat Clear Epoxy Primer fills the weave, smooths, and seals the surface on reinforcement fabrics such as carbon fiber and Kevlar®. Its ultra-clear formula enhances the attractive look and texture of these cosmetic composite fabrics, with fewer worries about solvent pop. Apply it as the finishing primer on a hand-layup project, or as the first layer in a mold layup. It dries fast to let you build up to 12 mils wet in 3 hours. It remains clear and won’t turn yellow. Primer sands easily, if needed, once cured. Overcoat with UV-resistant clear urethane topcoats or varnishes.
