great application and colour stability for darker shades of colour
Tested on pure black gel coated composites, the table below demonstrates the high performance of
the NPG formula and the incredible resistance to blushing / colour change seen with the FUSION
technology only available from Polynt. We see very little difference in colour after the standard 1
day test, so we run our tests for 5 days, which is much more severe for the Gel Coat.
