[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 484413, member: 15636"] I too was going to recommend a quart (total) kit too, and likely you’ll have much left over. But seal the edges grains really well, so I do a couple coats on that, adding the new coats once the previous coats kick, i.e., are tacky to the touch. Look up www.raka.com & call Larry or Mike and they will tell you exactly how much you may need. They might even tell you that their $22 sample kit will do what you need! As far as mixing up epoxy, DO NOT MIX up too much all at once! The heat it generates from curing will make the whole thing ‘cook off’ and I have seen containers almost catch on fire, smoking like you cannot believe! I have seen plastic mix containers melt away and cause a mess in the boat too! In my signature, look up how I prepped the wood for the SS through bolts, in the 15’ StarCraft. [/QUOTE]
