Core densities and fabric areal weights can vary by plus/minus 20% which will impact the mass values indicated in the table above.
Our sandwich core panels can be supplied with a smooth glossy (non UV stable) surface or a textured matte bonding surface. A high gloss UV stable finish can be achieved with sanding and finishing with a good quality automotive 2K Epoxy-Urethanes, Polyurethanes or Acrylic Spray Lacquers
