Marks point about being ready to use it when you buy it is very important. I have bought 2 gallons and have used maybe 1/2 gal. total. Now I need more. I tried to revive the hardened resin by heating but it did not work. Does anyone know a source for vinylester resin other than A/C Spruce or a source to buy a quart or half gal.

I can't seem to find any product description that describes resin as vinylester, and have forgotten which foam is okay to use if necessary.<< Colin, In my slightly old AS&S catalog, it's just called "vinyl ester resin", and has a part number of 01-07350. You also need the catalyst, 01-07325. Last time I checked, Wicks didn't sell it. Make sure you're ready to use the stuff when you order it, because it has a finite shelf life once "promoted", which is how it'll be when you get it. You add "catalyst" to make it cure. Also check on availability, because last time I ordered it I had to wait about 3 or 4 months for it (which is one reason I'm still not real wild about AS&S). Properties and mixing instructions are listed in the AS&S catalog as well...
