I've been using Smith's CPES. Seems as good as anything. The value seems better. Josh Muckley S/V Sea Hawk 1989 C&C 37+ Solomons, MD On Mar 10, 2016 12:46 PM, "Sam Salter via CnC-List" wrote: > Where do you guys get the very low viscosity resin that soaks into wood > end grain? > Thanks > sam

For what it is worth, I took a look at the Git Rot product at West Marine last week and did not make a purchase. The directions say specifically that it is intended only to be used in a contained space, such as in a rotted balsa core, and is not suitable to be painted on. I forget the rest but

I didn't catch that part but what I do remember is that IIRC you had to mix the entire batch. Use it or loose it. At $20 its just a little too pricey to loose it. Josh Muckley S/V Sea Hawk 1989 C&C 37+ Solomons, MD On Mar 10, 2016 6:05 PM, "sthoma20--- via CnC-List" wrote: > For what it is wor

Hi Sam, The penetrating epoxy is kinda volatile so you might have difficulty with a US firm shipping across the border. The two Canadian Manufacturers I like to deal with are Systems 3 and Industrial Formulators. They both started out in Lower Mainland area, B.C. My last purchase was System

Not an expert but I would mix a thickened batch of epoxy loaded with cab-o-sil and chopped glass, trowel it in place then set a fitted waxed-paper wrapped piece of stiff, flat, plastic on top, bored for the bolt holes, fitted to bilge, and spin on the the keel bolt until you get some squeeze out.

Not not hijack this tread, I changed the subject. Since we seem to have epoxy experts here. I am trying to take out some slight unevenness from the bottom of my bilge so that my keel bolt washers have an even contact. Can I use some low viscosity epoxy, just pour it into the bilge, probably dam o

The best way to get a very level and flat surface is to use thin epoxy... But then it may squish or flow out and allow for voids. Besides that, you MAY want to create a damn around the keel bolts. I don't think crumbling is going to be a problem. The 12000 psi coming from the keel bolts is "poun

Well, there aren't any absolute answers. Some solutions are just better than others. I like epoxy for injecting, flowing and uneven surfaces. It is much less viscous than most putties. It fills voids if you don't mix it too thick. Like many of us listers, the best technique is to coat the adher
