Thanks for the tip!
I don't have a side grinder. Yet! Installed the carbon deck stiffener today. Mixed up some VE/glass microbaloon/ milled fiber/ fumed silica and catalyzed at just under 2%. Installed it with 3 car jacks. One in the middle, one each end. It kicked nicely. We will see how it looks tomorrow. I might actually have put a little crown in the deck if I am lucky. |

The resin I use is also an AOC product, It is a Hydropel High Performance Vinyl-Ester infusion resin. I like the infusion resin because of the low viscosity. 1708 lays up better with a thin resin to get a good fast absorption plus I was planning on doing some vacuum bagging also is why I went with a thinner viscosity. I cant find the MSDS but here is a link to a close version to what I have: (my product number is slightly different but it is about the same resin)
