Carbosil Patch & Repair Complete Kit Tinted
Carbosil or known as Aerosil is Viscosifying Fumed Silica, Resin Thickener or Rheology Modifier used to thicken epoxy resin to achieve a smooth, non-sagging, high-strength mixture for coating, structural bonding, filleting and filling. CARBOSIL is engineered to provide ideal thickening properties with added thixotropic and sheer thinning properties to make it easy to trowel, screed and apply to any surface.
Carbosil fumed silica is widely used to provide thickening and enhance anti-settling properties in resin, flow and gel coats. Can be used for reinforcement and gluing/adhesive applications. The product offers an excellent balance of thickening efficiency and dispersibility.
