: Yes, I've had good luck with Resin Research. I also have been
: building boats commercially (part-time) since 2004 and have used
: epoxies from USC, MAS and West. The RR IS a little different.
: This goes for any new epoxy or other material you haven't used
: before: make some test panels before you use it on any parts
: that will show.

I have been looking at Resin Research's website trying to determine which epoxy to order. I have also called them and not heard back from them. I assume you want the lowest viscosity available for wetting out the s-glass which would be the 2090?

I will do a test panel, as far as working characteristics is there anything specific I should watch out for?

Thanks again for all the advice!
