Polyester Resin (Inspec 222-60 LSE Low Styrene) Waxed is a waxed low styrene polyester resin designed for fibreglass laminating, repair, and composite fabrication applications. Suitable for marine, automotive, industrial, and general fibreglass work, this resin provides reliable curing performance and reduced styrene emissions for workshop and fabrication environments.
As a waxed polyester resin, it cures to a tack-free surface finish, making it suitable for final laminate layers, repair work, and exposed fibreglass surfaces where a hard cured finish is required.
Designed for use with MEKP catalyst, Polyester Resin (Inspec 222-60 LSE Low Styrene) Waxed supports consistent wet-out of fibreglass reinforcement materials including chopped strand mat, woven cloth, and composite fabrics.

What is Polyester LSE Waxed Resin (Crystic 2-446-45) used for?
Polyester LSE Waxed Resin (Crystic 2-446-45) is used for fibreglass laminating applications where a fully cured, tack-free surface finish is required, making it ideal for final laminate layers.
What does "waxed resin" mean in Polyester LSE Waxed Resin (Crystic 2-446-45)?
Waxed resin contains a wax additive that rises to the surface during curing, creating a barrier against air and preventing oxygen inhibition so the resin can fully cure.
Can Polyester LSE Waxed Resin (Crystic 2-446-45) be used for multiple laminate layers?
Polyester LSE Waxed Resin (Crystic 2-446-45) is generally best used as the final laminating layer. Unwaxed resin is recommended between layers to ensure proper adhesion and bonding.
Is Polyester LSE Waxed Resin (Crystic 2-446-45) pre-accelerated?
Yes, Polyester LSE Waxed Resin (Crystic 2-446-45) is pre-accelerated and only requires the addition of MEKP catalyst to initiate curing.
What reinforcement materials can be used with Polyester LSE Waxed Resin (Crystic 2-446-45)?
Polyester LSE Waxed Resin (Crystic 2-446-45) is compatible with chopped strand mat, fibreglass cloth, woven roving, and other common fibreglass reinforcement materials.
What does LSE mean in Polyester LSE Waxed Resin (Crystic 2-446-45)?
LSE stands for Low Styrene Emission, meaning Polyester LSE Waxed Resin (Crystic 2-446-45) is formulated to help reduce styrene fumes during application compared to conventional polyester resins.
