Brampton Marine Epoxy Strong Bonding for Boat Repair - Bonds in 30 Minutes, Water Resistant (16 Ounce)

I used this on the bottom of my pontoons as they were in Salt water and are now corroded and unable to weld. I spread this on and it worked perfectly. Mixes up excellent. Only mix what you can work in 5 min or it will be to hard to spread. It is a true 5 min work time.

This epoxy is easy to mix and apply, but keep two things in mind - it's a bit thick, so wetting out glass cloth (don't use strand mat unless it's specifically epoxy rated) can be a bit tricky, and they aren't kidding when they say the working time is 5 minutes. This stuff is great for patches and crack filling (I used it to repair a bathtub that had been damaged in shipping) but I wouldn't recommend it for laying up any items of large size due to it's fast cure time. My rough guess would be no more than a 1' square patch with 3 layers of glass - and have plenty of spreaders handy. My preferred way to laminate a patch using quick cure resin is to precut the glass, set the pieces on some visqueen, pour the resin on the cloth, spread it, lay another layer of visqueen over the wet glass, and then spread with more pressure. As soon as it's wetted out, peel the patch with the top layer of visqueen off your work area, and slap it onto the area needing repair. Note: you may want to slightly prewet the patch area with resin, especially if it's textured or rough Work out all the air bubbles (quickly, you're on the resin kickoff clock!), let it cure, and then peel off the visqueen. Keep in mind that the strongest laminate will have only enough resin in it to wet out the fiberglass completely, but in a repair situation, this epoxy seems to do a good job of filling the voids, and appears to be strong even without glass fibers infused into it.

I used the product to make modification to the fiberglass cowl of my large scale RC airplane. The 1:1 mix ratio sets up in 5 minutes as advertised. 30 minute cure is spot on and it really hardens nicely in a few hours. I like the ability to massage the fiberglass as the resin starts to heat up just before it sets.

The product works well. I was a bit confused when it said gray, but it actually turns out clear. You can mix large and small amounts, but it does set quickly as instructions say. I wish they would have included a scraper.

This cures fast and is fairly colorless when set. What I like is the two separate containers. The is no chance of premature mixing as with the syringe dispensers. Very nice.

Repaired a tear in my Inflatable boat. Very strong glue.

A woodworker said to use marine epoxy but this is way too thick for that. It's a royal pain to deal with and doesn't dry clear. Avoid it for slab projects.I should have used "casting resin" that is pourable.This was almost a complete waste of time and money for the intended use case. On the other hand it bonded really well and the polyurethane had no issues coating it but never use it for woodworking in my opinion. The project came out okay but I would never use this again for that purpose, it's almost useless on smaller cracks. I gave the unused portion away. It's not that much different from JB Weld or something like that. Also it's very hard to get out of the bottle in any quantity. Use a small drill bit to open the spout a little bit before trying to get much out.

great product

Great epoxy that sets up fast and is easy to use. I got it for my boat and have found many other applications since.
