- Applications
P215 is designed for sheet molding compound applications where surface aspect is key. It is recommended for low shrink and low profile applications including automobile body parts, brake pads, and high-end sanitary parts. The product is especially impressive in headliner applications where the perfect glass opening and distribution ensure smooth surface and homogeneous thickness.

Storage & Handling
- Storage
It is recommended to store glass fiber products in a cool, dry area. The glass fiber products must remain in their original packaging material until the point of usage; the product should be stored in the workshop, within its original packaging, 48 hours prior to its utilization, to allow it to reach the workshop temperature condition and prevent condensation, especially during cold season. The packaging is not waterproof. Be sure to protect the product from the weather and other sources of water. When stored properly, there is no known shelf life to the product, but retesting is advised after two years from the initial production date to insure optimum performance.
