In Response To: Re: Epoxy: Fill coats (Charlie)
: The basic rule for a maximum strength epoxy/glass lamination is: apply one
: ounce of epoxy for each ounce of glass weight per square yard,(i.e. 6 oz.
: of epoxy for each sq. yd. of 6 oz. glass). This, normally, leaves the
: weave showing. Additional coats of epoxy, such as fill coats, do not
: increase the strength of the lamination.
: You seem to be on the proper course to keep the weight down.
The layup looks strong enough and exterior glass will get full fill coats, so it might have to do. The glass is 6 oz and had a good wet out.
Thanks
