Acetone for GRP Roofing – 1L & 5L

• Cleaning rollers, brushes and mixing buckets
• Removing uncured resin from tools
• Wiping down trims before applying top coat
• Cleaning dust after sanding cured base coat
• Preparing surfaces prior to top coating
• Re-activating cured laminate before overcoating (within system guidance)

Proper acetone wiping improves resin bonding and helps achieve a consistent, defect-free finish.

In GRP roofing, surface contamination is one of the most common causes of poor adhesion.

After sanding the cured base laminate, dust and surface residue must be removed before applying top coat. Similarly, trims must be wiped prior to top coating to remove manufacturing residues and contaminants.

A clean, properly wiped surface ensures:

• Strong intercoat adhesion
• Reduced risk of flaking
• Improved finish quality
• Long-term system performance

• 1 Litre: Up to approx. 10m² of wipe-down area
• 5 Litre: Up to approx. 50m² of wipe-down area

Actual coverage will vary depending on application method and substrate condition.

• Highly flammable
• Use in well-ventilated areas
• Keep away from ignition sources
• Wear appropriate PPE (gloves and eye protection recommended)
• Dispose of solvent-soaked cloths safely

Always follow site safety procedures when handling solvents.

Dust, sanding residue and surface contamination are the main reasons top coats fail. A proper acetone wipe takes minutes but ensures the next layer bonds properly. Skip it and you’re relying on luck.
