FEATURES
GEL TIME EXTENSION
Slightly slow the catalyzed pot life
by adding COOLSHOT at at 3:1
blend.
COMPATIBLE CHEMISTRY
Designed to work along with the
DuraKote gelcoats and Duratec
polyester primers.
STAY C HILL
Longer gel time makes it easier to
use the gelcoats or primers in
higher temperatures or where
large
amounts will be mixed at one time.
TACK FREE FINISH
COOLSHOT enables gelcoat to
form a smooth, hard surface film.
COLOR NOTE:
Adding 39COOLSHOT to an opaque
coating will reduce the opacity of the
coating. This may cause an apparent
color change.
Before any repair test the mixture to
determine if there is enough opacity to
achieve a satisfactory repair.

DE S
CRIPTION
A
n additive designed to accelerate the s urface cure of and overcome the
oxygen
inhibition of the Durakote gelcoat series or other
polyester gelcoats.
I
t can also be used to slow gel time in Duratec polyester primers.
COOLSHOT will increase the gel and cure time by ~1
0% and enables
gelcoat to form a smooth, hard s
urface film.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
5.Spray pressures should be 35-50 PSI. If pressure pot is used, provided 10-15 psi
pot
pressure.
6.Spray the entire surface
to be repaired with a fine mist coat, and wai 2 minutes
for t
he solvents to fl off.
7.Fol
low with wet coats, overlapping the surroundi
ng area to ensure complete
coverage. When re-spraying large areas, keep a wet edge with a sta
ndard
gelcoat spray technique.
8.When the material has cured (~1 hour), lightly sand with
320-800 grit wet or dry
sandpaper. Allow coating to breathe
for at least another hour after sanding.
9.After open breathi
ng period, buff surface to desired finish. AquaBuff 1000F
Fast-Cut Compound and
AquaBuff 2000 Polish is recommended.

2.Thoroughly sand the area to
be repaired to a 120 or 180 grit finish. Ensure
surface is cleaned well to remove a
ny contaminating substances. Select a high
quality gelcoat of the appropriate color. We recommend a small gel time
mixture be done to determine specific gel time for existing shop conditions.
3.Add COOLSHOT R
epair Additive a t a 3:1 ratio (Gelcoat to Additive) to the
gelcoat
prior to use. Thoroughly mix before using.
4.Catalyze the combined mixture as recommended, at 2% by weight with MEKP
(Norox 925 is a good choice.) Mix thoroughly.
*39COOLShot will reduce the gel coat or Duratec. If additional thinning is needed, thi n 5% by weight with
Duratec 39UCE, MEK,
or virgin acetone.
