    • Heavy-duty (HD) cousin of FK’s #332: Hand or Spray Interphase Release Wax. Contains the same high-melt synthetic blend waxes incorporated into #1000P: Hi-Low Paste Wax and #1000L: Hi-Low Liquid Wax but the solvent systems have been changed to reduce viscosity and make the product sprayable.
    • Field tested and fully embraced by all users because it gets the job done – especially for larger molds, panels and other large jobs that require excessive labor for application of paste or liquid waxes.
    • Very easy application – just spray on, allow it to dry and then wipe lightly – quick and easy. Cuts your labor costs and increases your productivity.
  • #1000P: Hi-Low Paste Wax

    $20.50$228.00
    • Contains a blend of synthetic waxes and is one of FK’s premium mold release waxes.
    • Proper application of this wax will result in a film that has high gloss and has resistance to intensive wear, heat and water.
    • Good for up to 275º F or 135º C.
    • Formulated so as to be brushed over gel coat before the final wax coat is applied without worrying about fish eye.
    • Recommended to be applied to any mold surface, whole or partial, where brushing the gel coat on the mold is required.
    • Can be used over #1000P as the final coat or used by itself when gel coating.
    • Specially designed to reduce the slip factor, which under some situations might allude to pre-release.
    • In the event “pre-release” occurs on corners, wells and radiuses due to excessive exothermic heat generated by mass chopping over these areas due to repeated passes, apply #1006 as the last coat or last two coats over the application of #1000P prior to gel coat and lay up.
    • FK’s premium cleaner that incorporates glazing and spreading agents.
    • Cleans deeper without any heavy abrasive action.
    • Easily relieves buffer swirls, paint and gel burns; Smoothens and removes fine scratches and blemishes.
    • Assures a deeper and cleaner finish on molds for sharp looking parts.
    • Recommended for rubbing out slight imperfections in the mold or finished parts and for removal of oxidation and/or discoloration of older parts. It is comparable to Meguire #1 Compound.
    • As the name implies, designed to withstand higher temperatures and is harder than other waxes.
    • Good for up to 275º F or 135º C.
    • USAGE: Higher temperature exothermic reactions.
  • It is recommended for the following types of urethane moldings:
    1. Elastomer Urethane
    2. Polyisocynate Component A
    3. Hydro-Resin Component B
    4. Urethane Foam
    5. Isocynate Component A (Diphenylmethone)
    6. Poly Component B (Polypreponal Glycol)
    Note: For #135 ER, follow the same guidelines as #135T.
  • A polymer-based release agent which has high heat stability. It’s polymers provide multiple releases and protection from high heat generated from accelerated exothermic reactions. It is specially designed for:
    • Accelerated Exothermic Resins up to 400º F or 204º C
    • Multiple Releases
    • Compression Molding
    • Vacuum Bagging
    • Resin Transfer Molding (RTM)
    NOTE: For best results, use terry cloth or Turkish towels when applying #135T. Apply in a circular motion to mold by overlapping previous area. Work product in thoroughly over the mold creating a thin even coat. Check for uniform coverage. Allow it to dry. Reapply as directed. #135T may be sprayed. When applying, if sprayed, we suggest wiping it lightly over sprayed film for uniform coverage.
    • Made with a heavy wax base.
    • Fine polishing compound used for the final machine polishing and dressing of molds before sealing and waxing.
    • Improves clarity and luster.
    • Excellent for older parts where light buffing may be required.
    • Synthetic, polymer resin based, low viscosity sealant that can be sprayed or wiped on the prepared mold.
    • Highly recommended as a spray base mold release wax for all non-skid areas.
    • Apply in the following manner:
    • For High Shine: Spray on, allow it to dry and wipe off.
    • For Dull Finish: Spray on, allow it to dry, wipe off surplus from only outside surfaces.
    • On non-skid area, just apply but do not wipe.
    NOTE: This product should only be used in this manner after at least one part is demolded with FK's Paste Wax.

      *** New 11 oz. can coming in 2023 to specific distributors***
    • Specially formulated for removal of wet or dry sanding marks, imperfections and other mild defects without scouring the gel coat.
    • A fast cutting compound formulated with fine abrasives and silicates to remove fine to medium scratches and blemishes.
    • Can be used on all gel coated surfaces as well as other mold materials.
    • Fast cutting compound that can be applied by hand or machine.
    • Recommended for rubbing out fine mold imperfections and fine or minor scratches.
    • Removes and blends or does touch up of mold surfaces when removal of foreign matter is essential.
    • Can also be used in heavy-duty work.
    • Formulated exclusively for the FRP, cultured marble and onyx manufacturers.
    • Semi-viscous paste wax that may be brushed or wiped on.
    • White in color so that it will not discolor.
    • Also effective in release hats, flanges and back splashes.
    DIRECTIONS: Apply three consecutive coats of #604B with a brush, cloth or sponge, one coat at a time. Allow each coat to dry before applying second and third coats to all flanges, hats and back splashes where gloss is not required. This builds up a wax surface that will produce multiple releases and should require only periodic application unless area is marred when demolding. In this case, reapply #604B to the affected area(s).
    • Formulated for cultured marble, granite and onyx manufacturers.
    • Blend of synthetic waxes, polymers and resins for high-heat stability and multiple releases.
    • Brush or wipe on three consecutive coats of #626, one coat at a time allowing each coat to dry before reapplying second and third coat to all hats, flanges, corners, edges and areas where a gloss is not required. Do not wipe. This builds a wax surface that will produce multiple releases and should require only periodic application unless area is marred when pulling a part. In this case, reapply #626 Polymer Hat Wax to affected area.
    NOTE: On some molds Polymer Hat Wax acts as a transfer wax, whereby it will be removed with the first, second or third pull and will leave a bright shine on the mold. This shows that the polymer resin has fused to the mold and it will allow several additional releases without reapplication. As the mold dulls down or the part pulls hard, reapply and continue cycle. IMPORTANT: When changing products, or periodically as a mold maintenance program, you need to clean the molds. This reduces resin transfer, wax build-up, hazing, etc... FK has developed a special polymer mold cleaner, #135-80 for this purpose. It will deter build-up of wax and styrene resin and will assure longer mold use with continuous releases. #135-80, Polymer Mold Cleaner inclusively forms a film on the mold that deters build-up, and extends the use of #626 by giving additional releases, thus reducing costs.
    • Formulated specifically for FRP and cultured marble industries where a flange- or edge-wax is required to assist in the prompt and easy release of the part.
    • Edge Wax is a semi-paste and it incorporates synthetic waxes into a system that forms a film that is virtually unbendable when applied as follows.
    DIRECTIONS: Apply 3 consecutive coats of #68 Edge Wax. Allow each coat to dry before applying the next one. Apply 2nd and 3rd coats to all flanges, corners, edges and areas where a gloss is not required. This builds up a wax surface that will produce multiple releases and should only require periodic application unless the area is marred when pulling the part. Reapply the Edge Wax to affected areas and a thin coat all over to get an even film.
