Supplies and MaterialsSanding AidSanding Aid is a mixture consisting of a wax additive dissolved in a Styrene Monomer base. It is mixed in resins and gel coats forfinish coats and patching to ensure a tack-free surface cure. As the gel coat cures, the wax rises to the surface. Sanding aid shouldnever be used when additional lamination will be done - due to the presence of the wax, the layers will not bond. Sanding aid shouldbe added at the same concentration as the catalyst (MEKP).Patching AidPatchaid from Cook Composites & Polymers is speciallyformulated to improve the working properties of traditional gelcoat spray patches. When mixed with gel coat, Patchaidprovides several benefits to mold or part patching/resurfacing.They are:+Low color, which results in excellent color patches;+Low viscosity, for easier spray and less orange peel;+Long working time, advantageous for repairing large defects andfor mold resurfacing;+Light stabilized, to minimize discoloration of patches made usingclear or pigmented gel coats;+Surface cure, which keeps sandpapers from "gumming";+Easier to sand and buff, due to proprietary additives and lessorange peel.Sold in 1 Gallon cans.Styrene MonomerStyrene Monomer is the base product of almost all polyester resins and gel coats. When sold separately, it is the recommendedproduct to be used when thinning of gel coats and resins is desired. Sold in gallons, fives, and drums.Webbing SolutionWebbing Solution a formula containing a special additive that causes gel coats to "string out" when used in spray equipment.Webbing Solution's most common uses are in the boat industry, for spraying a non-skid or alternate color on boat decks, enginecompartments, storage compartments, etc.Liquid Pigment ConcentratesSome manufacturers prefer liquid color concentrates over drycolors for consistency and mixability. Advanced Plastics representsthe American Colors and AOC CHROMA-TEK line of qualitycolor pigment concentrates.

We offer a broad andcomprehensive line of Vetrotex fiberglassreinforcements throughout all ourlocations. Technical know-how, on-timedelivery, and excellent service makeAdvanced Plastics THE Vetrotexdistributor of choice. First produced over50 years ago, Fiberglass ReinforcedPlastic (FRP) products have worked theirway into nearly every aspect of our lives.Our cars use FRP structural componentsbecause of their tremendous strength-toweightratios, lower tooling costs and the design flexibility they afford automotiveengineers.The electrical insulating properties of FRP have helped appliances, tools and officemachinery become safer, stronger and less expensive to produce. Corrosion-resistantFRP tanks and pipes, yielding extended service life over metals, are helping industrycontrol toxic waste problems, thus contributing to a cleaner environment.And, perhaps our greatest success story, the advantages of FRP in the marineindustry are so great that is has virtually replaced other traditional materials in therecreational boating market, and is making great strides in the commercial and navaldefense areas.Fiber Glass MatChopped Strand Mat is made by chopping bundles of glass fiber and dispersing themevenly with a random orientation onto a moving belt or chain. The strands are thenheld together with a chemical binder. Due to random distribution, the strength of theproduct is isotropic in the plane of the mat. Chopped Strand mat is available in manywidths up to 120 inches and weights of from 3/4 to 3 ounces per square foot. Itshould be noted that mat weights are per square foot while woven roving weights areper square yard. Chopped strand mat is most commonly used in contact molding(hand lay-up), centrifugal casting, continuous laminating and some closed moldingapplications.Conventional Rovings (Gun Roving)Conventional Rovings, also known as assembled rovings or classical rovings, are aseries of parallel filaments bonded together in multiple strands and wound into rovingballs. They are available in a broad variety of yields, weights, sizing treatment andpackaging configurations. Package weights are usually about 40 lbs. to 80 lbs., with ayield of between 56 and 414 yards per pound.Conventional Rovings are generally used in a process where they are chopped. Theywet-out quickly and disperse evenly throughout the resin matrix during molding orforming, which makes them ideal to be chopped for spray-up, preforms, mats,centrifugal casting and open mold processes.Spray-up is a low- to medium-volume method used to make relatively simple mediumtolarge- size parts with one finished surface. Among the most frequent applicationsare in the chemical-resistant, marine manufacturing and tub/shower/spa industries.22www.advanced-plastics.com

FiberglassDirect Wound RovingsDirect Wound Rovings are a collection of parallel fiber glass filaments woundtogether in a single zero catenary strand. This continuous strand is wound as atubeless or tube type cylindrical package, defined by end use, then sheathed in aplastic sleeve that allows it to run out without snarls.Direct wound rovings (RO99® Rovings) are available in a variety of yields andsizing treatments to perform in virtually all of the major resin systems.As a single end, zero catenary reinforcements, direct wound rovings areparticularly applicable in the pultrusion and filament winding processes. Due tolow fuzz and excellent strength characteristics, direct wound rovings are also usedto create woven and knitted fiber glass fabrics.Woven RovingsWoven roving is a heavy fiber glass fabric thatimparts high strength to molded parts. Madefrom direct rovings, woven rovings come in awide variety of thicknesses, strengthorientations, widths from 3" to 130" andweights from 8 to 40 ounces per square yard.Woven roving is a favored product of manyhand lay-up operations because of its highstrengthlaminate properties, easydrapeability, rapid wet-out, and relatively lowcost. Woven roving is the quickest way to addthickness and stiffness to a laminate.Combination Woven Roving / ChoppedStrand Mat (also known as "Stitchmat")Fabricated by stitching or chemically bondingone ply of woven roving to one ply of choppedstrand mat, this combination reinforcementachieves greater strengths and more efficienthandling characteristics than either could doseparately.The result is a heavy, drapeable fabric thatcombines the bi-directional fiber orientation ofwoven roving with the multi-directional fiberorientation of chopped strand mat. Thecombination of mat and woven roving lends atremendous advantage to hand lay-up openmold operations because two layers can be cutand placed in the mold in a single operation.Available in a variety of widths from the factory,Advanced Plastics also has a slitting machinethat can provide you with custom widths uponrequest.www.advanced-plastics.com 23

FiberglassChopped StrandChopped Strand is made by cutting continuousfiber bundles into short pieces. Ranging inlength from 1/8" to 1/2", these fibers are thenadded to plastic compounds to add strength,stiffness and dimensional stability. The type ofcontinuous strand used and the lengths towhich they are cut determine the bulk densityand flowability of the reinforcement. Forexample, 1/8" strand can range in bulk densityfrom 20 to over 40 lb/ft³. The type, length andamount of chopped strand to be used aredefined by the strength and weightrequirements of the application, and by theprocess to be used.Uses:Polymer ConcreteThermoplastic Compound MoldingThick Molding Compound (TMC)Bulk Molding Compound (BMC)979 Chopped Strand is a high performance,general purpose reinforcement used forcompression, injection, or transfer molding, automotive heater housing, taillight housing, fender extensions, electrical outlet boxes andswitch controls, fan shrouds, hand tool housings and business machine components. It is specifically designed to achieve optimumresults in bulk molding compounds (BMC).Fiberglass ClothBGF and the Hexcel Corporation are theleading suppliers of reinforcement fabrics.While they produce many standard fabrics forthe composite industry, their main strength isthe special fabrics for advanced composites,including carbon and aramid fabrics. Thecomplexity of products and applications makeit essential that the people you deal with cangive you accurate answers promptly. Whenyou call Advanced Plastics you will get correctanswers promptly.Fiberglass Cloth TapeFor use in special applications or areas that require specialreinforcement, Hesgon 9 oz. fiberglass tape is the solution.

FiberglassFIBASIL Surfacing VeilFIBASIL is a non-woven "C" glass veil whichdisplays exceptional stability and is easilyworked without any folding, creasing orwrinkling during the application process.Because FIBASIL is manufactured from "C"glass fibers, it is not affected by ultra violet; it willnot rot, it does not burn, has excellentweathering properties, and is acid and alkaliresistant.FIBASIL has been specifically designed anddeveloped for use in the FRP industry where itprovides greater control of the thickness ofresin-rich layers. It reinforces the gel coat layersand reduces the risk of cracking and moistureingression, as well as increasing the flexibility ofhigh-resin coatings.FIBASIL improves the impact strength of theresin-rich top layer and resistance to weather,abrasion, chemicals and corrosion. FIBASILprevents surface tension between the gelcoatand the supporting laminate, allowing "Wet-on-Wet" construction, and adds greater all-round durability to anyFRP molded product.Vectorply Performance Composite ReinforcementsVectorply manufactures a broad family of advanced technology engineered reinforcing fabrics called VECTORPLY ® Non-Crimp Fabrics(NCF). Already used in a wide variety of applications in the automotive, aerospace, construction, corrosion and marine industries, theunique attributes of VECTORPLY ® fabrics set them apart from other performance engineered fabrics.NCF is a composite-reinforcing fabric in which fibers are organized into layers or plies of variable weight and orientation. The layersare stitched together. The result is a range of engineered fabrics with predictable, repeatable properties for the composite industry.Although similar to "Stitchbonded" fabrics, VECTORPLY ® fabrics are unique in that they are manufactured via an in-line processrequiring less stitching; this enhances fabric drapeability and conformity. This process includes a method for adding chopped strandmat to fabrics by directly chopping roving at the desired weight, and then stitching directly to the fabric BINDER FREE. This lack ofbinder in the mat, typically required of other "stitch-bonded" manufacturers again leads to superior conformability and wet-out. Thesemanufacturing processes allow Vectorply Composites to make a wide-range of heavy products; some in excess of 100 oz. per squareyard of reinforcement, with handling characteristics of much lighter fabrics.Call Advanced Plastics today for more information on VECTORPLY ® NCF Fabricswww.advanced-plastics.com 25

Before using, read the followinginformation and both the product label and Material Safety Data Sheet pertaining to eachproduct applicable.Most polyester resins contain styrene. Styrene can cause eye, skin and respiratory tractirritation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Impermeable gloves, safety eyewearand protective clothing should be worn during use to avoid skin and eye contact. Washthoroughly after use.Styrene is a solvent and may be harmful if inhaled. Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupationaloverexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage. Extended exposure to styrene atconcentrations above the recommended exposure limits may cause central nervous system depression causingdizziness, headaches or nausea and if overexposure is continued indefinitely, loss of consciousness, liver and kidneydamage.Do not breathe or ingest vapor, spray mists and dusts caused by applying, sanding, grinding and sawing polyesterproducts. Wear an appropriate NIOSH/MSHA approved, properly fitted, respirator during application and use of theseproducts until vapors, mists and dusts are exhausted, unless air monitoring demonstrates vapors, mists and dusts arebelow applicable exposure limits. Follow respirator manufacturer’s directions for respirator use.The International Agency For Research on Cancer (IARC) has reclassified styrene as a Group 2B "possibly carcinogenicto humans". This new classification is not based on new health data relating to either humans or animals, but on achange in the IARC classification system. The Styrene Information and Research Center does not agree with thereclassification and has published the following statement: "Recently published studies tracing 50,000 workers exposedto high occupational levels of styrene over a period of 45 years showed no association between styrene and cancer, noincrease in cancer among styrene workers (as opposed to the average among all workers), and no increase in mortalityrelated to styrene".Styrene is classified by OSHA and the Department of Transportation as a flammable liquid. Flammable polyesterproducts should be kept away from heat, sparks, and flame. Lighting and other electrical systems in the work placeshould be vapor-proof and protected from breakage.Vapors from styrene may cause flash fire. Styrene vapors are heavier than air and may concentrate in the lower levels ofmolds and the work area. General clean air dilution or local exhaust ventilation should be provided in volume and patternto keep vapors well below the lower exposure limit and all are contaminants (vapor, mists and dusts) below the currentpermissible exposure limits in the mixing, application, curing and repair areas.If the label or Material Safety Data Sheet indicates lead or lead chromate is present, do not use on toys, furniture orsurfaces that might be chewed by children. Wash hands thoroughly after using and before smoking or eating. Longtermoverexposure by inhalation or ingestion of mists and dusts from products containing lead compounds and leadchromate can cause harmful effects to the urinary, blood, reproductive and nervous systems and may create risk ofcancer. Use a respirator as explained above in this information sheet.Some polyester products may contain additional hazardous ingredients. To determine the hazardous ingredientspresent, their applicable exposure limits and other safety information, read the Material Safety Data Sheet for eachproduct before using.First Aid: In case of eye contact, flush immediately with plenty of water for at lease 15 minutes and get medical attention;for skin, wash thoroughly with soap and water. If affected by inhalation of vapors or spray mist, remove to fresh air. Ifswallowed, get medical attention.Labeling: Polyester products have a least two components that must be mixed before use. Any mixture of componentswill have hazards of all components. Before opening the packages, read all warning labels. Observe all precautions.Storage: Keep polyester containers closed when not in use. In case of spillage, absorb with inert material and dispose ofin accordance with applicable regulations. Emptied containers may retain hazardous residue. Do not cut, puncture orweld near these containers. Follow container label warnings until containers are thoroughly cleaned or destroyed.Note: Advanced Plastics would like to thank Cook Composites and Polymers for their gracious consent in allowing us to extractthe above information from their copyrighted data sheets and informational bulletins.www.advanced-plastics.com 27
