Hey all, I came accross an epoxy resin for "fiberglass repair" made by
bondo that is sold in stores around me, including walmart. It uses I
believe 7 drops of hardner (included) for one oz of resin.

Has anyone here tried useing such a product to make a stitch and glue
boat? Aside from the dosage problems with such a small ratio, can
anyone think of any other problems that would come up?

Thanks in advance.

If it is using 'drops' of 'hardener' it is not an epoxy but a polyester
resin.
Polyester resin on wood tends to peel off after a few years.
