Quetion #972

Post by Darrells »

Finished putting graphite on my Pirogue. Have a couple of rough spots on the waterline. If I sand them smoothe can I recoat with plain epoxy to restore shine or do I need to add graphite to it?

epoxy would do it. Or just sand all the graphite. Messing but makes it very slippery.

Darrells,

You'll like the effects of the epoxy. It will go through lilly pads and such with almost no extra drag at ll. And, the graphite enriched epoxy is much harder than the standard stuff.
