Rick,

I too have used the 6oz and the 3.75oz with absolutely no problems so carry on with no worries. And, if you have questions Larry at RAKA is great to deal with.

But alas, I have a roll of 5oz in the shop that I will be using on a Grebe I am building for the kids. I'm going to paint the hull and I will be sure to use slow hardner for wet out. I don't think the little gaffers will complain if there is a slight weave showing on the deck of their kayak, and if they do it serves them right for all the stuff of mine they have broken or lost

Happy building,

Ken

: Yesterday, a thread started about Raka's 5 oz cloth, which included a few
: small comments about their cloth in general. I may have been reading
: things into it, but I got the impression that folks generally like the
: epoxy, but buy their cloth someplace else.

: So, this is my first building project, and I bought the Raka epoxy and their
: 6 oz plain weave. But now I'm feeling a bit nervous and am wondering if
: the 6 oz will wet out easily and be a clear finish.

: Can I get a few comments from those who used the Raka 6 oz cloth? How was it
: to work with and so forth? Does it wet out clear?

: Thanks - I think after the 5 oz thread, I just need a little reassurance that
: the 6 oz will be fine, and if not, I'll re-buy from someplace else.

: Thanks

: Rick
