Default Epoxy v. Poly

"rude" wrote in message ...
The reply was to the group, any thought that it was an attack on you
personally, or to your business was not intended. The clown suggestion is
closer to the truth than you would realise...:-)

I have also done some work on this and that...my work flies in Australian
skies, floats on rivers and oceans, drives around tracks at 100+ mph. I have
an interest in things made from this type of material, and building things
thats all.

I get a bit P***ed off at people trying to get around what they need to do
and making lots of excuses to not do things properly.


It was quite obvious you were p***ed off, that may be why you
misunderstood my, and several other posts. And doing what I do
properly is exactly why I use Epoxy instead of Polyester. If I have a
need for laminating resin, I may use polyester, but in my case I need
an adhesive, so I use epoxy... Cause I do want to do things properly,
no excuses here.

I do not mean you
personally BY renegade, I have never met you, nor you me, how could I make
such an assumption? I just mean as a general statement, and from my industry
experience generally people will try and get around things (the public).

All I was saying was:

Chose a material, read the instructions, follow the instructions.


Yup, that's what I do.


If you don't like the material, or the instructions, or can't measure
things, don't use it.


None of these apply here. If you somehow got that impression then you
have completely missed my point. As someone who spends a considerable
amount of time working with first time builders of stitch and tape
boats, I will continue to reccomend Epoxy in most cases. When I have a
project that calls for polyester, I will use it too. later...
