Hey,I'm getting ready to layup my cowling. Any suggestions as to which epoxyresin to use? I'm kinda leaning towards longer pot life as much of whatI've ready seems to focus on a race with the stuff curing in the pot.ThanksDouwe________________________________________________________________________________

Not sure what you mean by "layup" I've had excellent results with WestSystem, they have different hardeners to alter the set time.Jack,Jack _____

Douwe=2CSystem Three's clear coat epoxy has a long pot life and wets out really nice since it's thinner than other laminating resins. I think it would be plenty strong especially in something nonstructural like a cowling. But you can check their tech sheet and compare. It's great stuff to work with.Doug DeverIn beautiful Stow Ohio
