I am fairly new to the boating repair world. I bout an old Wellcraft V20 and have done some work on it, but nothing compared to this.<br /><br />Outstanding. I am beyond impressed.

Oh, BTW Kagee, I forgot to mention. That HF Sandblaster's best attribute is how well it exfoliates your facial skin. Be sure to wear goggles.<br /><br />And thanks all for your comments. I'll keep postin 'em.

It is epoxy resin filled with one of these,<br /><br /> http://www.shopmaninc.com/fillers.html <br /><br />for the purpose of making a non running filler or adhesive.

<br /><br />This stuff.<br /><br />Mix the epoxy or poly first then add the milled glass, cab-o-sil(fumed silica), glass fibers, etc.<br /><br />Thats milled glass. I made 9 oz of epoxy 3oz of hardener and 6oz of resin. 2:1 ratio. I used System 3 in the shot. And mixed in 12 oz of 1/8" milled glass fibers to get it that thick. The longer the fibers the stronger the mix but the shorter is smother.
