We finally had a great day for epoxying, and the time to do so. Boat is now half covered with glass. Some tricks learned along the way from prior boats that may help someone else.
purchase a Tyvek painting suit. Worth its weight in gold
use a chip brush, and squeegee to spread out and spread in the epoxy.
do not apply too thick a layer. Apply with the brush, spread out with the squeegee. 3 thin coats should do it for 6 oz glass.
mix small batches of 5 pumps at a time. You can do at least half the hull in a little over an hour.
I like the WEST as the 5:1 pumps make things very manageable.
Tyvek suit ready for action.
glass almost all laid out.
Timer is set for 3 hours later to trim the excess and prep for the other side. Patched area at stern is nice and smooth fore aft and sideways.
