32737-00
Polyester Finishing Resin
DESCRIPTION
POLYLITE
32737-00 is a clear finishing resin designed specifically for surfacing surfboards, sailboards,
boats, etc. This resin will cure in air to a hard, tack-free, moisture-resistant surface.
POLYLITE
32737-00 is non-air-inhibited and light stabilized. It is rigid, with low reactivity, low viscosity,
and pre-promoted to cure at room temperature with the addition of methyl ethyl ketone peroxide.
BENEFITS & FEATURES
Batch-to-batch consistency and uniformity from production utilizing Statistical Process Control (S.P.C) &
Statistical Quality Control (S.Q.C) techniques
Cures to a hard, tack-free surface due to the content of a surfacing agent
Minimal yellowing due to UV-stability
Specially promoted to produce transparent, water-white cured color and long gel time to allow removal
of brush marks
