I've heard a lot here concerning using Marine-Tex. But there are

wondering if this is the stuff to use.

A small package of it goes a long way. *If you only have to patch a
small area, just go with the smaller package - it's not complicated to
use which is its appeal.

Worked very well on the Halman.

Done deal.

Thanks!

I had forgotten about Marine-Tex, great stuff and they are right, it
does not run. Basically it is epoxy with a thickener.
However, when making repairs, I like to use thin epoxy first to have
it soak into the surrounding area and then while it is still soft I
fill in with thicker stuff. That way it is bonded all the way into
the surrounding area instead of relying on a mechanical bond to the
surface. That's my theory at least.
