| 251241 | 2004-07-10 07:38:00 | If it's a clear liquid which smells strongly of solvent, it's most likely a polycarbonate type substance dissolved in a strong solvent, which will fill the scratches and set like plastic. Or it could be a silicon type substance dissolved in solvent (similar to "Mica Cooktop Protector"). | somebody (208) | ||
| 251242 | 2004-07-10 09:04:00 | It's a type of liquid polymer, basically a more refined version of liquid epoxy as you would use in fibreglassing. It will be a proprietary formula so chances are you will have to buy another complete kit as chances of getting just the fluid are slim. Where is it made? Does it have a NZ distributor? Try a web search on the company, flick them an email and see if they will send you more fluid. |
