Epoxi is widly spread...

But, sometimes other traits are wished for. Are there any marine
performance (for wood, plastic, ,metalls) glues that (compared to
epoxi) are more...

a) elastic?

b) low density?

c) as epoxi but 1 komponent?

d) how is epoxi lowest density achived ?


Morgan O.


I rely on three main adhesive/sealants Epoxy(with various fillers)
3M5200(CALLED A SEALANT BUT HAS GREAT ADHESIVE QUALITIES) and a product
called MArine GOOP (this stuff looks like that worthless silicon rubber
product, but is nearly as strong as 3M5200 but more elastic)

As for adhesision to various materials, if the adhesive is recommended
for that material then the limiting factor becomes surface preparation.
Bad or no preparation and ANY substance will fail.
