I'm considering mixing my own pourable transom. I've research the available product out there and everything I find seems to be out of FL. HazMat shipping to San Diego on top of the product cost makes it a bit pricey so I've been thinking of buying local ingredients and mixing my own. Based upon the density of the finished product, I'm guessing the popular brands are about 40% poly and 60% ceramic microspheres. My first question is would epoxy be a better than polyester resin? Which would flex better without cracking? I'm actually going to try a test mix with 1/3 resin (one of each), 1/3 ceramic microspheres and 1/3 chopped glass and test it. Any input from those that have worked with this stuff would be appreciated.
