#105 Epoxy Resin

Comments about #105 Epoxy Resin:

I live in Texas and have had issues with resin setting up before it is applied. I used the slow hardner and had plenty of time to work with product. My replacement boat floor came out great and I can say that the Westmarine products made it possible. It has a high cost but its worth it!!

The pump arrangement makes the resin easy to formulate consistently.

Excellent material. I have used West Systems many times over the years and have always found it to be a relatively easy way to repair fiberglass and even wooden boats. Highly recommended.

This is the base resin from which most of the West System epoxy products are created and custom blended by the user. Combined with the appropriate West System hardeners and additives it can be used for bonding, coating, fairing, and reinforcing cloth applications to wood and other materials. I use this product extensively in my wooden boat shop for both repairs and new construction tasks. I strongly recommend using an appropriate respirator and gloves with this item, as this is one of many products everyone should limit unprotected exposure to.

I have used the West System and most of the fillers and additives throughout the years and have never been disappointed. I inadvertently left a used 9" roller standing upright on a cinder block overnight. The next day I picked up the block by the roller. When I tried to dislodge the roller, the block broke, but not the bond between block and roller.

105 Mixes easily with West Systems hardners. It performed exactly how described. Be sure to use the pumps designed for West Systems. They take the guess work out of proper ratios of resin to hardner.

Wood floor repairs made easy thanks to Tom at the West Marine Store in Appleton, WI!

I've used this product many times over the past ten years for many different applications with no problems. If used for outdoor applications, it should be protected from UV (as any epoxy) with varnish, clearcoat, etc. If coated with varnish, make sure you let the epoxy cure sufficiently or the varnish won't cure.
