The Dream Team of Repair Products

We’ve talked a lot lately about the miraculous UV-curing laminate known as SolarShell that makes repair jobs much easier and more efficient. Now we’d like to introduce two more agents that also take part in the repair process: (soft drumroll to cue entrance) SolarRes and SolarGel.

Neat names, but what do they do?
SolarShell products are versatile and easy to apply, so they are perfect for repairing, patching, or protecting almost any surface.

SolarRes is like your traditional resin, but it has excellent corrosion resistant properties, so it’s protective power is unmatched when it comes to reinforcing various applications that are often exposed to chemical, industrial, and abrasive environmental conditions.

SolarRes can be used to seal surfaces prior to applying SolarShell, but it also works well on top of SolarShell joints. In some cases, SolarRes is used over an entire SolarShell application to enhance its physical appearance and durability.

SolarGel is (you guessed it) a gel that is ideal for filling pocks, dents, holes, and other surface abrasions. It can be used in combination with SolarRes and SolarShell or as a stand-alone product.

  • Adheres to steel, concrete, insulation glass, wood, and more
  • Resistant to the effects of weather, water, and many chemicals

All-Purpose, UV Curing GRP Laminate – New to the US

UniTherm Insulation Systems, a company specializing in industrial insulation fabrication and innovative applications, introduces SolarShell – an easy to apply glass reinforced plastic laminate that starts as a flexible sheet – either from a roll or patch and cures to a hard, impermeable material when exposed to UV light.

SolarShell can be cut to any shape and used to reinforce, repair and/or protect virtually anything from PVC pipe and plastics to fiberglass panels, sheet metal, wood and concrete. The unique nature of SolarShell allows for a seamless chemical bond – no primer needed. SolarShell is durable and can withstand abuse from weather, chemicals, and fire creating a system that traditional products cannot offer.

For over 6 months, UniTherm Insulation Systems’ R&D department has been working with the material, testing various applications and creating systems. SolarShell has an adhesive property to it that allows for a wide offering of applications, including home repair, auto, RV, farm equipment, marine, and numerous industrial application, such as oil and gas.

The boundaries for the application and markets of this product are virtually limitless.
“No other product like SolarShell exists in the US and UK. We have only begun to tap into the potential applications and markets for this product,” says Dan Sherrill, President of UniTherm Insulation Systems. “We’ve had our R & D department working with the material and creating systems for the past 6 months and are now hand-picking the manufacturer’s representatives who will take SolarShell into their markets.”
