It is used to fill gouges, scratches, and other damage on fiberglass, wood, or metal hulls and keels, and it is a common step in fairing lead, steel, or cast iron keels before final topcoating. The compound is lightweight, non-sagging, and non-shrinking, so it holds its shape on vertical and overhead surfaces without slumping while it cures. Its fast-cure formula allows quick recoats, and once fully cured it is waterproof, chemical resistant, and water resistant, making it suitable for repairing blistered gelcoat and other below-waterline damage. EZ-Fair sands to a smooth, fair finish, typically with 80 grit sandpaper, and can be painted over once faired. It ships in a cartridge for controlled, mess-reduced application. On lead keels it is used after a coat of Metal Primer and Pettit Protect, sanded smooth, then followed by additional coats of Pettit Protect. On steel or cast iron keels it follows a coat of Rustlok Steel Primer and Pettit Protect in the same manner. Total dry film thickness matters more than the number of coats applied, so build up material as needed to achieve a fair surface before final finishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pettit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 705020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Form:\u003c\/strong\u003e Putty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContainer Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cartridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNet Volume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 250 milliliters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull Cure Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Water resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Materials:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fiberglass, metal, wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Clear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fast curing, non-sagging, non-shrinking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 725469026568\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is Pettit EZ-Fair used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e Pettit EZ-Fair (part 705020) is a two-part epoxy fairing compound used to fill gouges, scratches, and surface imperfections on fiberglass, wood, or metal boat surfaces, both above and below the waterline, and to fair lead, steel, or cast iron keels before topcoating.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs EZ-Fair waterproof once it cures?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, once fully cured Pettit EZ-Fair is waterproof, water resistant, and chemical resistant, which is why it is suitable for below-waterline repairs and blistered gelcoat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does EZ-Fair take to cure?\u003c\/strong\u003e EZ-Fair has a full cure time of 1 day, and its fast-cure formula allows for quick recoats during a fairing job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat sandpaper grit should I use to fair EZ-Fair smooth?\u003c\/strong\u003e For fairing a lead keel, EZ-Fair is sanded smooth with 80 grit sandpaper before applying the additional topcoats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan EZ-Fair be painted?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, EZ-Fair sands to a smooth finish and can be easily painted once it has cured and been faired.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat materials does Pettit EZ-Fair bond to?\u003c\/strong\u003e EZ-Fair, part 705020, is compatible with fiberglass, metal, and wood surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes EZ-Fair sag or shrink while curing?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, EZ-Fair is a non-sagging and non-shrinking formula, so it holds its shape on vertical or overhead repairs without slumping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size does Pettit EZ-Fair 705020 come in?\u003c\/strong\u003e Part 705020 is a 250 milliliter cartridge of EZ-Fair epoxy fairing compound.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is EZ-Fair used when fairing a lead keel?\u003c\/strong\u003e On a lead keel, the surface is disc sanded to bright metal, coated with Metal Primer, then Pettit Protect;
