Disclosed are thixotropic polyester compositions wherein the thixotropic characteristics are provided by incorporation into the polyester of a member selected from the group consisting of a precipitated silicon dioxide and a mixture of a precipitated silicon dioxide and a fumed silica. The resulting thixotropic polyester compositions are useful in industries where the resin must not drain from a vertical surface before cure, such as in the boat building industry, and in electrical and transportation applications, and particularly in fiberglass reinforced unsaturated polyester resins and gel coats.
