Novol 1222 Fiber Glass Fiber Putty (600g) – High-Strength Structural Reinforcement
When your repair demands maximum mechanical strength and the ability to bridge significant gaps, reach for Novol 1222 Fiber. This professional-grade polyester putty is heavily reinforced with long glass fibers, creating a structural "mesh" that makes it the ideal choice for repairing rusted-through areas, holes, and severely weakened body panels.
The 600g unit is the perfect spot-repair size, ensuring you have the industrial power of fiberglass on hand without the waste of a larger tin.
Key Features & Benefits
- Extreme Mechanical Strength: Long-strand glass fibers provide a rigid, high-strength bond that can bridge large holes and perforated metal.
- Superior Filling Properties: Ideal for thick application layers where traditional fillers might shrink or crack.
- Anti-Corrosive Barrier: Once cured, the dense fiber structure provides excellent resistance to moisture ingress, protecting the underlying metal.
- High Adhesion: Bonds powerfully to bare steel, aluminum, and glass-reinforced plastics (GRP/Fiberglass).
- Waterproof Nature: Unlike standard body fillers, fiberglass-reinforced putty is non-porous, making it suitable for areas exposed to dampness.
Professional Repair Strategy
Novol 1220 Fiber is a "coarse" filler. Because of its high fiber content and rigid nature, it is significantly harder to sand than standard finishing putties. It should be used as the structural base layer of a repair rather than the final surface.
Application Steps:
- Preparation: Remove all loose rust and paint. Sand the area with a coarse abrasive (P80 grit) to create a strong mechanical "key."
- Mixing: Mix the putty and the provided hardener thoroughly until the color is uniform (no streaks).
- Application: Press the putty firmly into the hole or defect to ensure complete contact.
- Sanding: Once hard, level the surface using coarse sandpaper (P80–P120).
Expert Recommendation: Due to the long fibers, the surface will remain slightly rough after sanding. To achieve a paint-ready finish, always overcoat Novol Fiber with a fine finishing putty like Novol Unisoft to fill any remaining micro-pores and fiber textures.
