It also bonds chemically to gelcoat, for a stronger, longer-lasting finish. Polyester Fairing Compound’s quick setup time is also a plus because it greatly reduces the time between application and sanding, for quick turnaround, which is very important for composite shops with tight production schedules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSmooth drag, no sag, and perfect feathering\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTooling professionals and those doing DIY repairs will appreciate Polyester Fairing Compound’s thick, buttery consistency that won’t sag on vertical and overhead surfaces.
