Jesmonite Flex Metal Gel Coats

What is Jesmonite Flex Metal?

Jesmonite Flex Metal Gel Coats are the latest development in Jesmonite materials. They are formulated using real metal powder to create the ultimate replication of metal in moulded materials. There are three finishes available and they are fully compatible with AC730 and AC830 as a cast or laminated back up.

How does it work?

Jesmonite Flex Metal Liquids are supplied to be used with Flex Metal Base. Flex Metal Liquids are designed to work in a number of ways. The liquids function as a thick resin medium that keeps the heavier Flex Metal Base in suspension – the key to making the system work. They act as a curing membrane to ensure that the cement component of the Base hydrates fully, thus reaching full strength and durability. They also provide a degree of extra ductility due to the flexible and highly water resistant pure acrylic resin used. Additional benefits are reduced porosity, and increased frost resistance.

Jesmonite Flex Metal Gel Coats should be used within six months from the date displayed on the packaging.
