Abstract: This disclosure relates to an in-mold surfacing film for structural composites, in the form of a thermally curable mul-ti-layer film comprising: (a) a release carrier, (b) a surfacing film layer overlying the release carrier, wherein the surfacing film layer comprises an OH-functional polyurethane and a thermally activatable curing agent which can react with the OH groups at a temperature higher than 120° C., and (c) a release liner. Also disclosed is a method for preparing a composite article in-mold using a prepreg and the multi-layer film.

Abstract: A dry primer film composite that includes a release carrier film and a pigmented sandable primer layer having a dry film thickness of 100 ?m or greater overlying the carrier film, wherein the primer layer is a latent heat curing material; and uses of the dry primer film composite for spot repair of a substrate in need of repair. In preferred embodiments said primer layer is formed from a coating composition comprising a binder chosen from thermosetting acrylics, GMA acrylics, urethanes, epoxies, polyester and combinations thereof.
