Cold Weather Accelerator for Flexitec 2020 Resin (Down to 1°C)

Flexitec Resin Winter Accelerator (300g) is a cold-weather additive designed to support curing of Flexitec 2020 GRP resin in low temperature conditions.

Used correctly, it allows Flexitec Resin to be applied on surfaces as low as 1°C, helping maintain predictable cure times when temperatures fall below the standard 5°C minimum.

What It’s Used For

  • Winter GRP roofing installations
  • Cold morning deck temperatures
  • Late autumn and early spring projects
  • Maintaining cure speed in low temperatures

Without accelerator, Flexitec Resin should not be used below 5°C.
With accelerator, application can proceed down to 1°C surface temperature.

Why It Matters

Cold weather slows resin cure dramatically. In borderline conditions, resin can remain soft or take significantly longer to harden, affecting workflow and risking incomplete cure.

Flexitec Resin Winter Accelerator:

  • Speeds up curing in cold weather
  • Restores workable pot life at low temperatures
  • Helps ensure full, even cure of the Flexitec resin
  • Reduces downtime and overnight uncertainty

It’s a controlled way to keep jobs moving during winter installations.

Correct Usage & Dosage

Add the accelerator to the resin before adding Flexitec powder hardener.

Typical pack dosing:

  • 10kg Flexitec Resin = 1 x 300g Winter Accelerator
  • 20kg Flexitec Resin = 2 x 300g Winter Accelerator

After thoroughly mixing the accelerator into the resin, add powder hardener at the correct scoop rate for the temperature.

⚠️ Important:
This product does not replace powder hardener.
Accelerator and powder hardener must never come into direct contact.

Temperature Guidance

  • Surface temperature range with accelerator: 1°C – 10°C
  • Ideal resin storage temperature before use: 5°C – 10°C
  • Do not use in freezing conditions or if temperatures are expected to fall below 1°C during cure.

Always follow the Flexitec Application Manual for full cold-weather guidance.

Roofer’s Perspective

If you’re laying Flexitec in winter, this removes the guesswork. Used correctly, it brings cure times back into a workable window so you’re not waiting hours for resin to kick in cold conditions.
