A guy was trying to charge another guy $150 for a ding he put in his " formed epoxy board- no fiberglass." surfboard saying " That’s the new trend" . HMMMM I have been hearing about that solid epoxy board for years, from unimformed customers, Does it finally exist? SOLID epoxy would weigh a ton and sink like a rock I thinks. And dinging it would be impossible.
I try to inform people at the beach that there’s no such thing as an “Epoxy Surfboard”…and I try to inform people about things like Epoxy paint and Epoxy garage Floors… two part epoxy glue…but even smart people always come back and ask me if I can fix an “epoxy” surfboard…sure I can fix your surfboard…and I charge more for “Epoxy” just because I can. Doesn’t cost me more…But the paint on the outside…I tell people up front that I do not do color work on repairs…and I’m more than happy to send Mr Epoxy to someone else…because most likely he’s not going to be a return customer…
…and I have a real job…and one of our plants makes aditives for Epoxies…weird science.
