My situation was not exactly the same as yours, but it may be similar enough. On the recommendation of Martin Step, stripper canoe builder extrordinaire, I wetted out with System Three Clear Coat (because it is less viscous), then filled with West System. I applied each coat while the previous one was a bit tacky. I had no bonding problems. Best of Luck, Ken Sarkozy Kalamazoo, MI

: Well, due to poor planning and a tight wallet, I think I will be using some
: West System Epoxy to finish up my Guillemot Expedition. I need to do
: probably one or two fill coats on both the deck and Hull. I'm concerned
: about the bond between the two different resins.

: Anyone have any advice - like don't do it? Rough up the RAKA real well first?
: Should I try and soften it up with something like acetone before applying
: the West System?

: Any input appreciated, and thanks in advance.
