Silmar Eco Series PE (249ECO)

Just purchased 2 gal (buy 1, get 1 free).  Contains 15% post-consumer recycled material.  MSDS is virtually identical to 249A.  Does anyone have experience with this product?  Thanks

I got a small batch about a year ago, did 2 boards with it one with regular MEKP and one UV.
Long story short, there isnt much difference from regular 249A. The average backyarder would never notice the difference.
It wets and spreads the same. The color is a bit different but still clear when glassed. You couldnt tell between a few boards which were glassed with what resin.
Performance wise, again the same boards lasted and actually are still around. and after about a year its all about the same look as regular 249A.

In short…you cant really tell

That is what I was hoping to hear.  Forgot to ask about UV.  Thanks for your assessment.

ResinDrums,

Are you referring to the 249ALH, the low styrene version, or is this something else?
