Eames Fiberglass Cleaning Sponge -Pack of Two Sponges
HardwareEamesFiberglassCleaningSponge.jpg

Eames Fiberglass Cleaning Sponges. These sponges make cleaning fiberglass easy. They are pre-impregnated with a gentle cleaning solution and have a strong cleaning power, with a gentle sponge texture to prevent damage to the gel coat. Using them is as simple as wetting the sponge with water and cleaning up your seat. Once you've tried them you'll never use anything else. They work best on fiberglass which requires medium to heavy cleaning; fiberglass with severe damage to the gel coat will require restoration as opposed to cleaning. The sponges also work well on other plastic and resin furniture and components.

Modern Conscience Fiberglass Gel Coat Restoration Kit (Solvent / Oil Base)
HardwareFiberglassGelCoatKit.jpg

Modern Conscience Fiberglass Gel Coat Restoration Kits. These handy little kits contain everything you'll need to restore the gel coat on your rough or dried out fiberglass shells. The kits contain a 1/2 pint of either oil and solvent based solution or waxed base solution. We use both methods for such restoration in-house. These are both industry standards for gel coat restoration. An oil and solvent based solution will require fewer coats to quickly achieve a medium gloss. While a wax based solution gives the restorer more freedom to build a finish ranging from matte to gloss over more time with several coats.

Instructions, wet sandpaper, an abrasive pad, and lint-free cloths are also included. Each kit includes enough product to handle an average restoration for a set of four sideshells, or two armshells. If a more aggressive restoration is required plan for the kit to handle about two sideshells or one armshell.

Please note that oil and solvent based gel coat restoration products will tend to cause a slight yellow tinge to lighter colors of fiberglass like Parchment and Greige. For lighter colors we recommend our wax-based gel coat restoration kit.
