WEST SYSTEM 207 Special Clear Hardeners
Transform your projects with the WEST SYSTEM 207 Special Clear Hardener collection, expertly formulated for use with WEST SYSTEM 105 Epoxy Resin to deliver exceptionally clear, moisture-resistant finishes. Ideal for marine, automotive, and woodworking applications, this hardener is perfect for coating and fiberglass cloth applications where a natural wood or carbon fiber finish shines through.
Key Features and Capabilities:
-
Crystal-Clear Finish: When mixed with 105 Epoxy Resin, the 207 Special Clear Hardener cures to a light amber, varnish-like finish that showcases the natural beauty of wood or carbon fiber, ideal for clear coating and fiberglass layups.
-
Blush-Free Performance: Engineered to resist blushing and clouding in humid conditions, ensuring smooth, glossy finishes with minimal sanding required for final coatings.
-
Smooth Application: Offers excellent thin-film characteristics, rolling out and tipping off smoothly for professional-grade results, with self-leveling properties that reduce surface preparation time.
-
Strong and Versatile: Provides robust bonding and barrier coating properties, suitable for structural adhesive applications like gluing and laminating, while maintaining compatibility with paints and quality UV-filtering varnishes.
-
UV Stabilization: Contains a UV stabilization additive to enhance resistance to sunlight, though long-term UV protection with marine paint or varnish is recommended for lasting durability.
-
Precise Mixing: Requires a 3:1 resin-to-hardener ratio by volume, easily achieved with WEST SYSTEM 300 Mini-Pump Kits for smaller sizes or 306-23/309-3 pumps for larger quantities, ensuring accurate and consistent results.
-
Workable Cure Times: Features a 20-26 minute pot life at 72°F, with a 10-15 hour cure to solid and 4-7 days to maximum strength, offering ample working time for precise application (minimum recommended temperature: 60°F).
-
Multiple Sizes: Available in various sizes (0.66 Pint, 0.33 Gallon, 1.45 Gallon, and larger) to suit projects from small-scale coatings to extensive marine and composite builds.
-
User-Friendly: Low odor and high flash point make it safer and more pleasant to work with compared to polyester resins, with excellent fiberglass wet-out characteristics that prevent drainage on vertical surfaces.
