Q: What metals and materials is Z-Grip approved for?
A: Z-Grip is approved for use on cold rolled steel, aluminum, SMC, galvanized steel, and fiberglass substrates.

Q: How much hardener should be mixed with Z-Grip?
A: Mix the included cream hardener at about 2% by weight, roughly a ribbon of hardener across the center of a 4 inch diameter puddle of filler; larger puddles need proportionally more hardener.

Q: How long does Z-Grip take to set and sand?
A: Z-Grip sets in about 3 to 5 minutes at around 72 degrees Fahrenheit (22 degrees Celsius) and reaches a sandable state in about 20 minutes.

Q: Is Z-Grip suitable for structural repairs?
A: Z-Grip is intended for cosmetic body filling rather than structural repairs. For areas prone to high stress or flexing, Evercoat recommends a fiber-reinforced filler such as Everglass, Kitty Hair, or Fiber Tech.
