Impervious gloves must be worn
Curing schedule is meant to be as a guide only and is subject to local conditions
To avoid exotherm, particular care must be taken with thick laminates
Ramp rates must not exceed 3.0°C (5.4°F)/min during initial cure and 0.3°C (0.5°F)/min during post cure
APS75 is designed for automotive and motorsport body panels that need to cope with higher temperatures. It also delivers a smooth, high-quality surface, making it well suited to visible painted parts.
APS75 is designed to create a high-quality surface straight from the mould. This can reduce the amount of filling, sanding and preparation needed before painting, helping save time during production.
APS75 is better suited to body panels that need to withstand higher temperatures. OPS75 is more focused on achieving an excellent visible surface finish and offers more flexibility for oven-based processing.
Yes. APS75 can be supplied with carbon fibre and is designed specifically for painted automotive panels. It combines a good surface finish with the strength and temperature resistance needed for demanding vehicle applications.
Using a prepreg designed for higher temperatures can help. APS75 is made to keep a good surface finish when exposed to heat, making it a strong choice for visible automotive and motorsport body panels.
