Just finished my 5th epoxy board. came out pretty nice, stoked with my results. trying to analyze some stuff here… get more efficient with time and energy.
- anyone not using RR or other surfboard brands? looking at that Jgreer stuff… for experimental type board. will add pigment. I like what someone wrote about whats 5 bucks on aboard? but shipping is a factor as well. and only one board so don’t need 3quart kit.
-
how much resin you guys typically use? for 6-6 deck. 6 bottom I use about 60oz or so… never scrape bottom or sides of mix bucket. had a problem once with epoxy never kicking off when I did this.
-
strength: whats the difference between 6 and 4? can get 6 E glass locally, but tempted to get 4oz S glass instead.
-
free laps… whats the key to getting really nice cut? would like to avoid hassle of taping and cutting. mine always turn out kinda jenky looking.
- sanding… always PITA. wondering if I can get better at hot coating… way to get out bubbles? use heat gun once I lay it down… never have problems with poly or resin X, but epoxy = trouble.
as always, mahalo for any response!
