The multi-layer system resists chemicals, hot tire pickup, and scratches while offering customizable design options. Ideal for garages, commercial spaces, and residential floors, it dries quickly for next-day use and includes repair and cleaning products for long-term maintenance.
Spa Repair Kits
Redux 650 Spa Repair Kits restore acrylic spas and hot tubs with complex designs like marble and pearlescent finishes. The kits include preparation materials, 2K coating bases, and finishing compounds for ~12 sq ft repairs. Formulated for durability in challenging environments, they require no special equipment and provide UV-resistant, stain-resistant results.

I have been working directly with Hawk now for 5+ years and done over a significant amount of business with them. They do a phenomenal job in answering questions about new products and getting orders out on time. I can count on 1 hand how many issues I have had with them and those were addressed very quickly and professionally. Keep up the great work guys, you have a great business!

Southern States Refinishing has been using GlassTech since 1995. I have tried others in the past and nothing compares to the durability of this system. We enjoy less warranties and a better look. Thank you Hawk for a successful 20+ yrs.

I get other companies to try to get me to use there products, send samples etc. Since being introduced in 06 to Hawk Labs, I will not use another Product. I service several Rest Homes and have My entire tenure as a Refinisher. I get to see how good Hawk (along with superior preparation) last on the substrates We refinish! Anyone can have it look good today, but talk to me in ten years. Hawk truly stands the test of time! Scott, Pam, and Mary are always there to assist me with whatever I may need! As far as this company see it, Hawk is my go to product to smoke the competition!

Our company, Simply Resurface, has worked with Hawk for many years. They are great to work with. Their products are topnotch. Our orders are accurate and delivered in a timely way and any issues are addressed and taken care of immediately. We've used other suppliers over the past years but keep returning to Hawk. Professional and really personable, it's a pleasure to know that they have our backs!
