What epoxy do you use?
9 Replies

Is anyone using the Marinpoxy from the supplier in Florida ( looks like duckworks sells it too)? It's cheaper but is it any good?

John Galilee replied to Winston Dryden's discussion What epoxy do you use?
"Epoxy 'A' from www.blugee.co.uk is very good. Its solvent free, easy to use 2:1 ratio, and no residue. The fast hardener is good for UK temperatures. They are in Poole in the UK.  "
