[QUOTE="sonny1, post: 504153, member: 32555"] Well the stuff worked great. [ATTACH]116739[/ATTACH][ATTACH]116740[/ATTACH] When you mix the resin and hardener together it smells better than a Spanish ***** house on a Saturday night. Trust me I know what that smells like. Not anything like bondo for metal. Cure time is less than what they say. About 20 minutes tops. After that it becomes very difficult to spread smooth. Have plenty for job at hand so not worried about it. Have a orbit sander, regularly vibrate type and a special angle type sander. Thinking we got this covered all the way around. Really looking for a smooth surface along outside of hull so when we paint it will look sharp. Got this in today [ATTACH]116741[/ATTACH] So now we can finish making sure everything is water tight. Plan on follow up with about 6 to 7 coats of primer Two part Total Boat Epoxy for aluminum. Zinc Chromate is Ok if you can not afford anything better but I prefer this.
