I've ordered from Raka and found the Raka #127 resin and #350 no-blush
hardener ideal for clear-coating fiberglass. It's a less-viscious,
softer epoxy that some others. Most similar to MAS in my experience.
Quick shipping. Good prices.

I used Raka (for the most part) when I built an 11' skiff.. works very
nice. Once major difference between Raka and Mas (as I ended up getting
some Mas to finish up), out of the can viscosity of Raka is noticable
thinner, so I would definately prefer to use that as a first coat over
bare wood.

John,
I find RAKA's '3 gallon kit' to be the most economical for 'all around'
use/inventory. Since Larry equates everything to '1 quart' increments, it is
very easy to 'mix-n-match' the order to different 'combinations' of basic
resin & hardeners.

It is also very nice to have a 'kit' of his '5-Minute' stuff on hand. Not so
much for boatbuilding . . . it's done many a repair around the house, yard,
boats, etc.

Regards & Good Luck,
Ron Magen

I bought (2) 7.5 gallon System 3 fairing kits and 2 gallons of System
3 Primer from Advantage - four separate orders all together. The
products arrived promptly - 3 or 4 days (I live on the West Coast).
The total price for these System 3 products, including shipping, was
less than I could find elsewhere. Plus, I did not have to pay my
state's sales tax. The owner Brian Dixon tries to please. I
recommend him.

Oh crap, Brian sells goo? I did not know that and I will check him
out, I have always liked his posts. And here I must note that
Advantage was not the company I was suggesting spams me either...
Sorry Bri, did not know that was you. Guess I gotta buy some goo from
you now... Scotty from SmallBoats.com

Hey Scotty. Thanks for the support (yes, you too Dave). And no, I don't
spam. I once posted an advertisement here and the feedback was pretty
negative, so I withhold such activities. I figure products and service
speak for themselves and word gets around.

PS: How'd you find our site?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Maybe not advertising enough 8-)

FGCI is fine, but it is room-temperature only (60F or higher for proper
cure). Otherwise, it's fine.
