KIT NOTES:

MACHINE SHAPE - RETRO TWIN
This is Shapers new age traditional fish, developed for small point waves, fat beach breaks or surfers after a fun addition to their quiver. The goal of this little shape is to make a board that is both progressive and traditional by combining elements of the speed, trimming, free-flow and adding new age flavour that allows for rail-to-rail transition. When finished the board should find pockets of speed on waves that a shortboard can't.

WAX & STYRENE
Is used with Surfboard Laminate Resin to make Filler Resin Coat (Final Coat Prior Sanding). A ration of 2.5% is required of Wax and Stryene to Laminating Resin.

SUNBAKE
Shapers SunBake UV Solar Additive is and optional curing agent that is to be used with Laminating or Filler Resin and allows for UV catalysing (hardening) of the resin, that does not require MEKP Catalyst. Specifically formulated for stronger, brighter surfboard laminates without curing time constraints.

Please ensure when repairing or laminating a surfboard you keep the resin AWAY FROM DIRECT SUN LIGHT as this will cause rapid hardening of resin.

NOTES FOR USE: 

Please beware resin will cure within minutes when exposed to sunlight.

Example of curing times by sunlight:

Bright Sun: Gel 15 Seconds / Full cure 5 minutes.

Partial Sun: Gel 30 Seconds / Full cure 6-8 minutes. Bright Sun: Gel 45-60 Seconds / Full cure 10 minutes. -

Work only indoor or isolated area out of sunlight. - Always test small sample of resin in sun before use. - If repair depth is over 1/4”, you will need to add MEKP to the resin at 1% to catalyse. MEKP Catalyst (Methyl ethyl ketone peroxide). Curing time with MEKP for a depth of 1/4” should curve within 15-30.

Fin System Options: Fin plugs do not come with fins, only fins are provide with the Glass On option.
