Apply Fiberglass Surface Prep YMA601 with a maroon, 3M Scotch-BriteTM pad and scrub well. Flush with fresh water or wipe off with a clean, wet cloth ensuring that no traces of Fiberglass Surface Prep remain. An alternative method would be to dampen a cheesecloth with Interlux Fiberglass Solvent Wash 202. Wipe thoroughly to remove all surface contamination and cleaners. Wipe off with a clean, dry rag before liquid dries. To be certain the contamination has been removed, run water over the surface. If the water beads up or separates, repeat one of the above methods. When the water sheets off, all contamination has be removed. Sanding does not remove contamination. After the surface has been properly prepared follow the application system below.
Bare Fiberglass - No Sanding System: Clean surface as above. Apply one thin, continuous coat of Interlux Fiberglass No-Sand Primer with brush or roller (do not spray; do not sand). Follow application guidelines for the primer and apply Fiberglass Bottomkote ACT with Irgarol.
