Epoxy on Vinylester?

[Crocodile69]

Is it possible to put epoxy resin onto a Vinylester hull? I've researched the topic, but cannot find the answer...

Thanks in advance.

Yup, sure can. Epoxy sticks to just about anything except some of the Slick plastic stuff like UHMW etc.. Poly and Vinylester on the other hand will NOT adhere well to Epoxy based products without special prep work and even then the bond can be suspect.

As WoG said, technically yes you can but why do you want to use Epoxy rather than using the original type of resin you hull was made out of?
