Description

Jesmonite AC300 is a water-based, two-component, acrylic polymer/mineral resin system. The system is suitable for a wide range of casting and laminating applications where the end-user wants to reduce the many risks associated with conventional solvent-based systems. A range of ancillary products including decorative and functional fillers, control chemicals, pigments and glass reinforcements are also provided making the material extremely versatile. The material is designed for internal use only and is fire-resistant and has achieved a Class '0' Fire rating. The material is an economical alternative to Jesmonite AC100 where external durability is not essential.

Purchase with Jesmonite Base (or instead purchase a Jesmonite AC300 kit) based on a mix ratio of 2.5:1 Base to Liquid. So you'll need 25kg Jesmonite Base with the 10kg Liquid and 2 x 25kg Jesmonite Base with the 20kg Liquid.

NB. Adjustments can be made to the ratio for the addition of additives such as stone and metal fillers, sands, lightweight fillers etc. Please refer to the specific sections of the instructions below. It is also possible to mix the material at a 3:1 ratio to produce a fast set which will help to fill joints, air bubbles, or join casts.
