Just wondering do you guys that use epoxy for everything also use titanium
for auto body repairs after all it's better than steel. It seems rather silly to repair a polyester and glass boat which is old with epoxy and the latest high tech fabrics. Why not try resin infusion too John "Jim Conlin" wrote in message ... I figure it'd be somewhat over $10/ft^2. Core-cell $4- maybe 4 laminations of: 12 oz. knitted Glass $10/yd = $.80/ft^2/ply epoxy $70/gal = $.60/ft^2/ply paint $1/ft^2 plus abrasives, peel ply, fillers, vacuum bag consumables "DSK" wrote in message .. .

But I think you grossly (very grossly) overestimated the cost & amount of materials needed for replacing core on a 20' deck. It's not going to be free, that's not what I'm saying. DSK |
