You have all seen them, a double barreled syringe for small repair jobs.

I've used them myself around the shop, rather than mess with the pumps, etc.
for simple jobs.

I'm putting together a fiberglass repair kit to keep on the boat while
cruising. Just for the small crack or ding or broken widget.

Not sure how good this stuff really is, compared to West System,etc.

Dunno, I've never done a direct comparison, testing the two against each
other. I have used both & prefer West, but the stuff in 2 parallel
syringes does a good job even if several years old (as you noted). Once
I used it for overnight repair of a spinnaker sheet block fitting
(actually, the deck around the fitting) and it was strong enough 14
hours later to race in 20 knot winds. Years later that repair was still
sound & had been painted over & all but forgotten.



Can I mix it with the fillers, etc.?,

Yes

... will it bond to polyester lay-up for
small hull repairs.

Yes... although it should be noted that there are several things you can
& should do to improve the bond.

The doubt that I would have is about quantity, I tend to find I have
only about 2/3 the epoxy on hand that I need for any given job... maybe
I have a habit of letting jobs expand too much.
