Default Which Resin?

Thanks for the info!

I will go with the polyester then, as the main concern is UV stability.

Second are clearness of the coat/layer and adhesion to wood and the
fiberglass (polyester, I assume) of the hatch. Strength is not an
issue, none of this is structural.

Any concerns with that from anyone? (Double-checking before I putting
sticky non removable stuff on large visible parts of the boat.


Yes: polyester does not stick to wood., it might look like it, but you peel
it off very easy. Polyester also does not stick to cured polyester very
well. Use epoxy. Period.
