SMS Expert Notes
Evercoat Slow BPO Cream Hardener (100364) is a valuable tool for technicians working in high‑temperature environments or performing larger, more complex repairs. By extending both working time and dry‑to‑sand time, it helps prevent rushed application, reduces the risk of pinholes or improper curing, and improves overall repair quality.
This slow hardener is especially useful when working with premium Evercoat fillers such as Rage Ultra, Rage Optex, Commercial Ultra, Metal Glaze Ultra, Everglass, and Fiber Tech. When temperatures rise or repair areas increase in size, Slow BPO provides the additional open time needed to properly shape, spread, and refine the repair without sacrificing strength or long‑term durability.
For best results, always maintain the correct 2% hardener ratio and mix thoroughly until a uniform color is achieved. Slow BPO should only be used with compatible Evercoat products and never with SMC resins (#864 / #865) or competitive fillers that require different catalyst chemistries.
