Hi Kris
I just finished my second boat using ecopoxy, and found it to be very nice to work with. It is water clear, low viscosity and virtually no odor (a slight whiff of ammonia in the hardener). For me, the big attraction is it arrives in the mail, apparently not to toxic for the postal service. I still treat it with the same respect that I gave the petro-epoxy, gloves, glasses and good ventilation etc. I'm using glass cloth though, usually 4 OZ.

Best rgds
