Sea Hawk R1-S2 Epoxy Resin, 1 Gallon System Size 2, Clear Low-Viscosity Fiberglass Resin
Sea Hawk R1-S2 Epoxy Resin, 1 Gallon System Size 2, Clear Low-Viscosity Fiberglass Resin
Sea Hawk R1-S2 is a 1 gallon container of Hawk Epoxy Resin, a clear, low-viscosity liquid epoxy designed for fiberglass construction and repair work. Because it is a low-blush formula, it leaves minimal surface residue after curing, which reduces prep work before additional coats or finishing. The resin can be cured across a wide range of temperatures and environmental conditions when paired with the appropriate Hawk Epoxy Catalyst, giving builders and repairers flexibility to work in varying shop or marine conditions.
R1-S2 is designated System Size 2, meaning it must be paired with a Hawk Epoxy Catalyst that is also labeled System Size 2 to maintain the correct mix ratio; mix ratios vary by catalyst type. Once cured, the resin forms a high-strength plastic with strong moisture barrier properties, making it well suited to marine fiberglass work where water resistance matters. The cured resin is also sandable, allowing it to be shaped and finished to a smooth, high-quality surface. Its low-viscosity, thin-layer roll-out characteristics make it practical for laminating, coating, and general fiberglass repair applications where an even, workable film is needed.
This size is packaged as a 1 gallon (128 fluid ounce) can of clear liquid epoxy resin, sold as a single unit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Sea Hawk R1-S2 used for? Sea Hawk R1-S2 is a clear, low-viscosity liquid epoxy resin used for fiberglass construction and repair projects, including laminating and coating work.
How much resin comes in the R1-S2 container? R1-S2 is packaged as a 1 gallon container, equal to 128 fluid ounces, of Sea Hawk epoxy resin.
Does R1-S2 need to be mixed with a specific catalyst? Yes, R1-S2 must be cured with a Hawk Epoxy Catalyst; since R1-S2 is System Size 2, the catalyst used should also be System Size 2 to keep the correct mix ratio, as mix ratios vary by catalyst.
What color is the cured epoxy? Sea Hawk R1-S2 resin is a clear liquid that cures into a clear, high-strength plastic.
Can R1-S2 epoxy be sanded after it cures? Yes, once cured, R1-S2 can be sanded to achieve a fine-tuned shape and a high-quality finish.
Is R1-S2 water resistant once cured? The cured resin from R1-S2 has a water-resistant moisture barrier, which is part of why it is used in marine fiberglass applications.
What viscosity is Sea Hawk R1-S2 resin? R1-S2 is a low-viscosity liquid epoxy resin, which supports thin-layer roll-out during application.
What temperature range can R1-S2 be cured in? R1-S2 can be cured across a wide range of temperatures and environmental conditions, depending on the Hawk Epoxy Catalyst used with it.
What does 'System Size 2' mean for R1-S2? System Size 2 is a color-coded sizing designation on the R1-S2 label indicating it should be paired with a matching System Size 2 catalyst for correct proportioning.
Is R1-S2 a low-blush epoxy resin? Yes, R1-S2 is formulated as a low-blush resin, meaning it leaves less surface residue after curing compared to standard epoxy systems.
What container does R1-S2 come in? R1-S2 is supplied in a 1 gallon can as a single unit.
What material does R1-S2 resin work with? R1-S2 is compatible with plastic substrates and is used broadly across fiberglass construction and repair projects.
