AGED/WEATHERED GELCOATS: Due to increased porousness, the risk of solvent/moisture entrapment is increased, leading to potential blistering. To reduce this risk 3 coats of International Interprotect are recommended to seal the gelcoat. Interprotect must be overcoated with International Perfection Undercoat.

ALL SUBSTRATES: Use Pre­Kote undercoat.

Method

Sand the undercoat smooth with 320­400 grade (grit) wet or dry paper. Remove dust with a dust wipe. Apply 1­3 coats.
