So what do you think, will it keep the water out?

[itidbits]

Did your foam roller last for the entire first coat or did you have to use multiple rollers? How long did it take to dry? And how long did the rollers stay usable

I want to build a casting deck for my jon boat. Would you use the epoxy or resin next time?

[kennygee]

Thanks for this video. I am considering this for a plywood camper I want to build. I'm in the research stage now. I figure if it's good enough for a boat, it should be good enough for a camper. I wonder if you can paint over it.

I’ve been to Lowe’s, Menards, and looked at Home Depot online for epoxy I couldn’t find, of course Amazon. I do live in Kansas

[GhassanLifts]

Which one was cheaper overall? This or the bondo resin?
Would 1 order of the gallon epoxy cover plywood that would cover an entire 1648 jon boat?

[edkimfishes]

Do you recommend cutting out the hatch holes before the epoxy or would be okay to cut out the hatch holes later?

[FirstLast-twqf]

Been reading epoxy can be cut up to 20% acetone for thinning and penetrating also use a slow hardener for more penetration a cheaper than expensive penetrating epoxy

Nice video, Thanks for sharing! So do you think this stuff works better than the tried and true fiberglass resin? I'm building a new transom for my crestliner and just wanted to get your opinion on hardness and strength vs the fiberglass resin. Thanks again!

[andrewrodriguez]

Love the video very helpful. How long after the first coat before you did the second coat. And did you wait 24 hours to do the other side. Thanks

[jefeeversole]

I am wanting to paint me deck what is your recommendation for that

[Nobadcasts]

I like it! So why are table top epoxy generally cheaper? Do you think they would adhere together? I’m building a transom with epoxy so I need something that holds together and will have great strength for the motor

[sjcomedy]

Can I now use oil paint on it & the paint won't strip off easily?

[gambels]

I am using 11/32 ACX plywood. Home depot didn't have RTD. The temperature where I live will be triple digits probably for at least 30 days straight. I don't care what the floor looks like in that it will be covered . I just want plywood to be waterproof. I will get everything ready and carefully mix it the 2 part resin like the MFG's directives. is this OK? Please say yes

[DNYSN]

I’m low low tech, is there something ekes besides boat epoxy which has to mixed just right, is useless after 15 minutes, and is expensive, like some kind of satin paint

[gambels]

People ask what's happening, I tell them confidently MVBoutdoors is happening! in order to use the BB epoxy resin, do you have to have a scale? Thx again!

[mrreddog]

With this Epoxy, does it seem to make the plywood stiffer?? Maybe we can use a slightly thinner plywood & make up some stiffness with this?? What ya think??

[tpledger]

fiberglass resin? You mean Polyester resin?

[PowerhouseOffroad]

Just keep an eye on the actual plywood you are using. Plywoods are vastly different in price and quality. Do your research on some woodworking channels. You'll be amazed. Sometimes it doesn't matter, but in some applications it does. I've had cheap plywood delaminate, found ply voids, and even plywood that has wildly different moisture content. The substrate is equally as important at the coating! Keep up the good work and progress!!!

The Instructions Before Using This Product tell you to “Work in a clean, dust-free, dry environment with an air temperature between 70°F and 85°F.” “Air temperature must be above 70°F in order for Epoxy to cure.” Nothing is messier than epoxy that doesn’t cure properly.

I would suggest looking at Marine grades of plywood for your boat projects. Local to me, The Plywood Company, Fort Worth, TX, carries
FIR - AB - 1/4" MARINE GRADE PLYWOOD, 4/8, Full Thickness, 7 Plies, at $104 per sheet
FIR - AB - 1/2" MARINE GRADE PLYWOOD, 4/8, Full Thickness, 7 Plies, at $137 per sheet
FIR - AB - 3/4" MARINE GRADE PLYWOOD, 4/8, Full Thickness, 7 Plies, at $152 per sheet
