    I thought I recognised that boat and the workshop... Yup, there's Mads & Athena! Great to see your boats progress.

    If you wish to increase pot life on paint or fiberglass resins put the a and B parts in a refridgerator it really helps in high heat times.

    Iam a fiberglass boat builder of trade. Note the most inportent thing when working on fiberglass is getting out all the trapped air.using the steelroller until you get a hard dry sound.

    Did this. Completely self-engineered heavy CSM and west system, no reference or advice. 35 y o hull on the hard, sandblasted, dried for at least 3 years. SCREAMING FRUSTRATION when rusty salt water bled through matrix within 3 months! First haulout 12 mo after launching quite a few blisters. Subsequent owner removed all, not adhered at all in some sections. 🤨 Just my experience. Remnants of tar epoxy after sandblsting, that's what I blamed.

    I’m a little late for the party . But that’s a nice barrier coat . Who cares if you have to sand blast the fiberglass later . You’d have to blast off 7 coats of just west systems if you used that alone for a barrier coat the next time the bottom is barrier coated . That shit is like sanding steel . Nice job I bet it will last longer than just epoxy.. it’s been two year have you pulled out .

    3m masking tape will hold that glass up while you wet it out. Then it will peel of easy.

    The epoxy coating is need to waterproof the hull, and we had a few spots where the steel reinforcement in the hull was exposed after grinding of all the old paint and epoxy. This needed to be covered, so we decided that the best way to insure this was to put one layer of 300 gram bx in to the epoxy coat,

    @@boat_24-7 absolute nonsense,if its not waterproof it wasnt cured properly. epoxy wont stick to concrete for long .if your grinding off old epoxy you have a badly built hull .i can see how unfair your hull is, a well built hull will be as fair as any boat. small rust spots are just bad tying ,not too much of a problem.the fairing your doing should not be neccesary if professional plasterers worked on your hull.

    I doubt epoxy will fall off etched cement. Very unlikely. Maybe polyester but not epoxy.
