Hello everybody, I wonder if anyone know what kind of gel coat materials are used in all-mold epoxy-glass gliders like the Nemesis 60" slope racer. the wing servo cover of my Nemesis got damaged and I am planning to made a replacement by myself. The original cover is dark blue in color and the gelcoat was sprayed on as I can clearly see dotted patterns when holding it against strong light. What amazes me is that although the gelcoat is extremely thin, the opacity is very high. I have tried to make the gel coat by mixing color pigment ( in paste form ) into West System epoxy 105 resin/206 hardener but before the original opacity is attained, the dosage of color pigment is already so high that the cured resin becomes unacceptably soft.\
Can anyone offer some suggestions on materials that I can try ? Thanks in advance , Y C Lui RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
