Default Re: I need Fiberglassing 101

M80,

Sorry to hear your having issues. I did some minor fiberglass work on my boat this summer and used the West System epoxy with good results. Are you using the pumps for mixing your resin and hardner?

For your final topcoating, are you planning on painting or gel-coating? Some say you cannot get a good gelcoat bond to epoxy resins and should use polyester resins for using a gel-coat finish.

Good luck and keep your chin up.
