WANTED UV resin source in North/East America

Posted: May 3, 2009 - 8:02pm

Havn't had much luck tracking down supplies in this end of the globe. I need a source for UV Polyester Resin. If they will ship it or are in the northeast end of the States I should be able to get it, I just need you to point me to the source. Online searches have yielded little and local sources do not carry anything UV reactive ( other than the yellowing that invetiably results with all resins). Help would be immensely apreciated so I can stop applying epoxy to my polyester board:(

Try fiberglass hawaii.  If you can find regular resin, it should be fairly simple to buy the powder.

Try http://www.surfsource.com

these guys are on the east coast vs. Fiberglass Hawaii. Both have sun cure based resins or as suggested the powder you can mix into polyester resins.

if that link doesn't work just stick surfsource in your browser.

Hi Split,

I'm sure you've found what you're looking for by now but for the future check us out www.FoamEZ.com .  We have UV Cure Resin as well as UV Powder you can add directly to your surfboard resin.  Both types work great and helps make repairs go super quick.  We ship out same day if you order before 1pm pst, therefore you can literally have the products within five business days if your way up in the North East.

Good luck-

Brad

Most UV resin you find on the market is plain old Silmar with the UV powder added to it.  In the NorthEast you can buy Silmar from North American Composites in Mays Landing NJ.  You can get the UV powder from SurfSource.
