First board. Seems like in all the steps so far I have always mixed up more resin than needed. Could have made several sets of fins with what went off in the pot. This board is a 6’ 10" fat ( 22") funboard. How many oz per side?
Howzit Alex, 16 oz should do the trick. Aloha, Kokua
Thanks for the assist.
I’d maybe consider upping that just a bit, a couple of reasons:
-
it’s your first hotcoat
-
you’re covering your first glassjob
-
Your talking a dollar or two more in resin, at the risk of coming up short?
-
I use 16 oz. on my shorties 6’2 - 6’3. Granted I’m not the most proficient, and could get away with less… but why? See number 5.
-
My first major leap in my glassing quality came when I quit being stingy with resin. Granted this is more of an issue with the layup, but who cares. Maybe if you’re in production, or have had a lot of experience, but you’re neither.
Play it safe, take notes, learn for next time.
