Description

Zap PT40 Z-Poxy Finishing Resin (12oz), part number 5525790-1, is a premium lightweight two-part epoxy designed for laminating and finishing. The long-cure formula is odourless, applies smoothly, sands easily to a fine finish and remains non-brittle. It bonds to itself and is compatible with many polyester resins, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of modelling tasks.

Well suited to glassing the centre-section of a wing or an entire aeroplane, sealing model boat hulls inside and out, protecting engine and fuel tank bays, and sheeting foam wing panels. The clear formula cures a light yellow, with an equal mix and practical working time for clean, controlled application.

Z-Poxy Finishing Resin

Premium Lightweight Laminating & Finishing Epoxy

Z-Poxy Finishing Resin is a professional-grade, two-part epoxy engineered specifically for laminating and surface sealing. Its thin, low-viscosity formula allows it to flow easily, making it the premier choice for fibre-glassing airframes, sealing boat hulls, and preparing wood surfaces for a flawless paint finish. Unlike many resins, it remains resilient and will not become brittle over time.

Why Professional Builders Choose Z-Poxy Finishing Resin:
  • Superior Wicking: The thin consistency is perfect for saturating fibre-glass cloth without adding unnecessary weight.
  • Fuel-Proof & Weatherproof: Provides an impenetrable barrier against petrol, glow fuel, and moisture—essential for engine bays and hull interiors.
  • Excellent Sanding Qualities: Cures to a hard, level surface that sands beautifully between coats for a mirror-smooth finish.
  • Antique Wood Finish: Dries with a subtle golden hue, making it a favourite for woodworkers looking to create an antique aesthetic.
Targeted Applications RC Aeroplanes & Marine

The ultimate solution for "glassing" the centre section of a wing or an entire airframe. It is also the gold standard for sheeting foam wing panels. For RC boat builders, it provides a completely watertight seal for hulls, both inside and out, protecting against the elements and fuel spills.

Woodworking & Outdoor Tools

Use it to weatherproof outdoor wooden furniture or tool handles. Because it penetrates deep into porous grain, it acts as a structural sealer. On decorative projects, it can be layered to build a deep, protective gloss that resists UV and moisture damage.

Pro-Tips for a Flawless Finish
  • Mixing Ratios: Mix at a strict 1:1 ratio by volume in a clean plastic cup. Ensure you blend the two parts thoroughly for at least 60 seconds to guarantee a proper cure.
  • Surface Levelling: On very porous wood, the resin will soak in. Apply multiple light coats, allowing each to cure and sanding with fine-grit paper between applications until the surface is level.
  • Easy Clean-Up: If you have any uncured or unmixed resin on your tools or hands, it can be cleaned away using isopropyl alcohol or denatured alcohol.
  • Small Batches: Only mix what you need for the immediate task. Once combined, the chemical reaction begins and the excess cannot be stored for later use.
