Re: gluvit question
The 2 pound can
5 parts epoxy to 1 part hardener by volume. Mix only small amounts!!!!!
Here is how I apply it.
You know those small plastic cups ....the red solo cups....... comes in from the grocery store.....they make terrific disposable mixing cups
use a clear plastic cup.
Start in the kitchen and use water. Get a tablespoon and measure out 2 tablespoons of water and mark the container with a sharpie then measure out 10 tablespoons of water and mark the cup again. That will yield 6 ounces of mixed gluvit.
Use a cheapie disposable 1" paint brush (the bristle type NOT a sponge one) and tilt the boat and do the seams first so as mentioned above so the gluvit flows into the seams. I would very lightly wire brush the seams first. The dab it on the rivets if you want.
Only so one side at a time (I do one side in one day) because it will flow. Use the brush to push it back to the seams. It has a LONG working time. At the same time you can do the transom seams.
The next day do the other side with the boat tipped the opposite way and do it the same way......do the transom again.
The next is to touch it up with the boat level, the transom and the seams again.
An easy project but worth it!!!!
Oh yeah.....have fun! Look at iboats
