Do not use the Mat. Using with epoxy will give an uneven wet out and will
end up being a hell of a mess. Believe me, I know!

Hello all,
I'm doing a patch job to the underside of a fibreglass driftboat with
fibreglass matt and roving material (weave).

What is applied first after the area is wetted down woth expoxy resin -
the
matt or the weave?

The material is about 18" x 18"

Thank you.
Eddy

Neither one. Those materials are for polyester not epoxy.

Get some 17 oz double bias (+/-45) knitted fabric for this job.

I'd probably lay about 3 layers.
