In Response To: Epoxy: west systems 207 (warren williamson)

There are some things I like a lot about West 207, I like the idea that it has some UV protection, and it it seems to cure into a harder end product than Raka. I can't compare it with Mas, but compared to Raka it cures harder. But, it seems to be more viscous and more difficult to get a good wetout. Also it cures faster, I melted two mixing cups with it by taking too much time with it, although this was in Louisiana summer heat.

: anyone here use west systems 207 for wetting out glass ? i've used
: it for small glass wet out projects.
: i've always used mas low viscosity for wetting out a hull or deck
: job, now i want to use 207 and i'm just
: wondering if it will wet out as nice as mas ?

: thanks,
