This tough, durable covering will greatly strengthen the hull and protect it from the elements almost indefinitely. it reduces maintenance to a minimum, no annual repainting, and provides the sleek look of a fiberglass boat at substantially less cost.

Epoxy Plus epoxy resin is far superior to polyester resin for applying a fiberglass covering to wooden boats. Why? Because Epoxy Plus epoxy resin is a powerful and flexible adhesive type coating, polyester resin is not. Epoxy Plus resin with fiberglass cloth will last longer and adhere far better, with greater impact resistance, for a long-term, low maintenance surface.

When you use our Epoxy Plus System, you will be working with a premium epoxy resin obtained by drawing on our years of experience in the boathuilding field and the technical experience of one of the top compounders in epoxy coating formulations.

The Epoxy Plus System epoxy resin is part of our complete system of premium epoxy resins, glues and surfacing compounds. Unlike the older epoxy resins using a 5 to I mix, our new Epoxy Plus System incorporates the latest 1 to 1 equal mix system, virtually eliminating errors and the waste found in the older 5 to 1 systems.

This equal mix Epoxy Plus System forms a covering that is both flexible and with unusually high bonding and impact strength. Being practically indestructible makes this the peace of mind protective covering you will want for your boat. Although the initial cost is higher, so too are the strength, durability and resale factors.

A thixotropic resin that contains wax that is recommended for boat covering, repairing and building. Minimal drainout on vertical surfaces, good bonding and economically priced to suit most budgets.

Fiberglass cloth supplied in our covering kits is of the latest specially treated cloth, specifically designed for epoxy resins but works equally well for polyester resins, Enough heavy duty cloth is included in the kit to cover the entire exterior of the hull, the sides, bottom and transom.
