I had forgotten about Marine-Tex, great stuff and they are right, it

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.

It's a good strategy but it is important to let the thin epoxy start
to cure before overcoating with the thickened top layer. *Otherwise
the thin epoxy will start to sag from the weight of the top coat and
take everything down with it.

OK, When Froggy posted what he does. I took 'soft' to be 'wet'.

Obviously not, though.

Excellent thought.

Thanks Wayne.
