Re: One more time with reglassing our deck.

Well, people who have used it love it. Strangely, they let real world experience of the product inform them. In other words, they try something new.

Don't worry, I expect you will never have...

Re: One more time with reglassing our deck.

OK, it turns out the MSDS is NOT on the web. Not sure what you read, if anything, but for those that like to do REAL home work, here is the ACTUAL MSDS from the distributor.

For the record, I...

Re: One more time with reglassing our deck.

Ooh yeah, there's gonna be plenty of that to deal with, I am sure.

The good news is I have checked the lower layer very carefully (easy to do, we have exposed deck undersides) and found no...

Re: One more time with reglassing our deck.

Ah, you are back from the cold bits then? :^)

So, it seems you are taking the same line as the boatcraft guys who advocated a single layer of 265 or 420?

I was going to use a non skid...

Re: One more time with reglassing our deck.

Greg, I am a bit shocked by this. Did you ACTUALLY view the MSDS or did you quote a web post which makes EXACTLY the same unsubstantiated claim. A claim that is subsequently, in the same post,...

Re: One more time with reglassing our deck.

Options are good though. :smile:

Just reading up on what you suggest now. Interesting, probably add a bit to the overall cost of the job, but not prohibitively.

My chief concern is...

Re: One more time with reglassing our deck.

Interesting, what advantage do you think this might provide? Stronger or easier to work with?

Re: One more time with reglassing our deck.

Thanks Doug, great description. I looked at the 1708 early on, but from my reading it would have been difficult for me to work with, I am just not great with fibreglass.

Interesting that you...

Re: One more time with reglassing our deck.

Greg, I believe TPRDA is not the same as an acetone based thinner. I won't try to upsell a product I have never used, but I have read a lot about it from people using it (not selling it) and to date...

Re: One more time with reglassing our deck.

Ok, so I think I have been quoted on some "tpda" to thin the epoxy for that first coat on the timber. Does that sound right? Then the supplier suggested I do as much deck with the thinned epoxy that...

Re: One more time with reglassing our deck.

Hmm. I am interested in your choice of words. You say it should be enough, which reassures me that I am not being excessive.

Re: One more time with reglassing our deck.

Good logic. So the 617 doesn't feel too heavy to you?

One more time with reglassing our deck.

Hi Cruisers,

I've asked this one before, and I got very close to a resolution. Of course, time and life got in the way, but I am back to looking at fixing the deck on the boat and I still have...
