Hi,

I am planning to use PX90 for Snowboard Sidewalls. That is, I will pour the PU resin into channels routed into the wood cores. As PU resins tend to react with moisture contained in the wood core, do you have any recommendations on wood sealers suitable to be used with this product?

secondly, I assume that your product 'Translucent Tinting Pigments for Clear Resin - Pack of 10' is suitable to be used with PX90?
If so, by when do you expect those pigments to be back in stock?

Cheers,
Martin

You could seal the wood with a thin skim of pretty much any epoxy resin to seal in the wood. Just give it a good key afterwards to help the PU get a good mechanical bond.

The tinting pigments will work fine with the px90 and they are due with us on or around the 18th Oct.

Cheers, Warren!

one more question: the PX90 data sheet contains information about max operating temperature. For Skis and Snowboards, the properties at low temp is also quite relevant. Do you have any information on that (also given that ski and snowboard sidewalls is listed as typical application)?

Thanks,
Martin

At the bottom end of the scale, the PU becomes more rigid and brittle below -20C which is the lowest recommended service temperature.

Hi,
the user guide / technical data sheet for XenCast PX series shows a picture of a blue skateboard wheel using translucent tinting pigments. How can you get a blue color like shown in the picture, given that Part A of the PX product  is quite dark/yellow? I tried to get the same color as shown in the picture for snowboard sidewalls, but they turned out greenish...


Thanks,
Martin
