GP Yellow Resin is a transparent yellow, orthophthalic unsaturated polyester resin from Samrat Poly Resins — a general-purpose structural laminating resin, not a surface coating or a lamination-specialty grade. It shares the same MEKP and cobalt octoate cure system and hand layup / spray-up processing as our GP Clear Resin, but runs thicker (450–600 cPs against GP Clear Resin's 350–450 cPs) with a slightly slower 10–15 minute gel time and 60–90 minute cure. With 34–38% styrene content and 99% purity, it wets out glass fibre reinforcement for a consistent, well-bonded laminate across roofing sheets, water tanks, FRP doors and panels, and general lamination work — a straightforward alternative to GP Clear Resin wherever the resin's own colour is hidden behind a gelcoat, paint or another layer.

GP Yellow Resin is catalysed with an MEKP hardener and cobalt accelerator, then reinforced with glass fibre for hand layup and spray-up — the same process used for our GP Clear Resin. Where the finished part needs to stay colourless, GP Clear Resin is the better choice; where a factory-pigmented grade tuned specifically for sheet and panel production is needed instead, see our Sheet Grade Yellow Resin. Mould-facing surfaces can be finished with a Gelcoat Resin, and projects facing harsher chemical exposure or continuous water immersion should step up to Vinyl Ester Resin instead.

What is GP Yellow Resin?

GP Yellow Resin is Samrat Poly Resins’ published transparent-yellow, orthophthalic unsaturated polyester, general-purpose laminating resin. It is intended for use with glass-fibre reinforcement when building the structural laminate in FRP products.

For buyers, the starting question is whether the supplied yellow colour suits the process and whether the reinforced laminate, pigment or surface layer determines the final appearance. It is not a mould-surface coating or a specialised grade for every requirement; review the published viscosity, gel time, packaging, MOQ and Technical Data Sheet against the actual production process.

Key features

  • Transparent yellow orthophthalic base, sharing GP Clear Resin's cure chemistry
  • Wets out glass fibre reinforcement for a consistent, well-bonded laminate
  • Thicker body and slightly slower cure than GP Clear Resin (450–600 cPs, 10–15 minute gel)
  • Cures at room temperature with the same MEKP and cobalt octoate system as GP Clear Resin
  • 34–38% styrene content and 99% purity for consistent, batch-to-batch processing
  • Supplied in 225 kg drums; minimum order 1,000 kg

Applications

  • Roofing sheets and daylighting panels
  • Water tanks and storage vessels
  • FRP doors and decorative panels
  • General lamination and FRP moulded products

Transparent-yellow GP Resin for general FRP work

The existing GP Yellow Resin application pages cover water tanks, cooling towers, roofing sheets, door skins, hand lay-up, spray-up and general FRP moulded products. Review this grade where its intentionally transparent-yellow supplied colour is acceptable; the relevant choice still depends on the component, reinforcement, production method, temperature and finished-surface requirement.

Review the existing guides for FRP roofing sheets, hand lay-up, spray-up and water-tank manufacturing alongside the product TDS before finalising a process.

GP Yellow Resin for Water Tank Manufacturing

Water tank panels need a resin that wets out glass reinforcement cleanly and cures into a strong, leak-resistant laminate — GP Yellow Resin's orthophthalic base and MEKP/cobalt cure suit this structural role wherever the tank's exterior is finished over the resin's natural yellow tint.

✓ Consistent laminate behind a finished exterior.

Frequently asked questions

GP Yellow Resin is a transparent yellow, orthophthalic unsaturated polyester resin from Samrat Poly Resins — a general-purpose structural laminating resin used to wet out and bind glass fibre reinforcement, not a surface coating. It is supplied as a non-accelerated liquid in 225 kg drums for roofing sheets, water tanks, doors, panels and general lamination work.

Both are general-purpose orthophthalic polyester resins that cure with the same MEKP and cobalt octoate system. GP Yellow Resin is thicker (450–600 cPs against 350–450 cPs) and gels and cures somewhat slower (10–15 minutes against under 8 minutes) than GP Clear Resin, and it carries a transparent yellow tint rather than being colourless. Choose GP Yellow Resin where the resin's own colour won't be visible in the finished part — for example, behind a gelcoat or another layer — and GP Clear Resin where a colourless resin matters.

No. GP Yellow Resin is a general-purpose grade suited to a broad range of FRP work — roofing sheets, water tanks, doors and panels. Sheet Grade Yellow Resin is factory-pigmented and tuned specifically for FRP sheet and panel manufacturing. Choose based on your specific application.

Gel time is 10–15 minutes. It is a non-accelerated resin, cured at room temperature by adding a cobalt octoate accelerator (0.3–0.5%) and an MEKP catalyst (around 1.5%); full cure typically takes 60–90 minutes depending on temperature and dosage.

As an orthophthalic polyester resin, GP Yellow Resin offers standard-duty resistance suitable for general FRP work, but orthophthalic grades are the base tier for chemical resistance within the polyester family. For moulds or parts facing harsher chemical exposure or continuous water immersion, a Vinyl Ester Resin system offers meaningfully better resistance and is the more suitable choice.

Viscosity is 450–600 cPs at 25°C, styrene content is 34–38%, and specific gravity is 1.10–1.14 g/cm³. Purity is 99%.

It is supplied in 225 kg drums, with a minimum order quantity of 1,000 kg. Bulk and repeat-order pricing is available on request.

Shelf life is 3 months in a sealed 225 kg drum and 2 months in PET packaging. Store between 25–30 °C, away from direct heat, sparks and sunlight.

Please share the expected quantity, FRP component or application, production method, whether the resin colour will be hidden in the finished build-up, and delivery location. This helps the sales team understand the requirement before preparing a quote.

Review GP Clear Resin where a colourless resin is relevant, Sheet Grade Yellow Resin for the published sheet-grade use, Lamination Resin for its published lamination-focused applications, Vinyl Ester Resin for a stated chemical- or corrosion-resistance requirement, and GP Gelcoat Resin for a mould-surface coating role. Review the relevant product data before selecting a system.

When to consider a different resin

GP Yellow Resin vs GP Clear Resin

Both are published general-purpose orthophthalic polyester grades for FRP work. Start with whether the supplied resin colour is acceptable, then compare the published viscosity and gel-time range; GP Clear Resin is the clear grade, while GP Yellow Resin is intentionally transparent yellow.

GP Yellow Resin vs Lamination Resin

GP Yellow Resin is the general-purpose grade to review for the published FRP lamination and moulded-product applications. Lamination Resin is the product to review for its published door, plywood and FRP bonding applications.

GP Yellow Resin vs Vinyl Ester Resin

GP Yellow Resin is a general-purpose orthophthalic grade. For a project with a stated chemical- or corrosion-resistance requirement, review Vinyl Ester Resin technical data and discuss the specific application.

GP Yellow Resin vs Gelcoat Resin

GP Yellow Resin is used with reinforcement to build the laminate. GP Gelcoat Resin is a mould-surface coating, so the two products have different roles in an FRP manufacturing sequence.
