The sea holds an attraction for millions of Australians, and to be afloat in their own boat, if only for a few hours a week, is sufficient reward for boat enthusiasts.  To build their own boat, whether a canoe or 50' ocean cruiser, provides pleasure and a sense of achievement few can appreciate.

WEST SYSTEM products are an easily used chemistry set that gives the amateur the ability to tailor the epoxy mixture to meet the project's specific needs.

By using a simple "cookbook" approach you can tailor the handling characteristics and the physical properties of the cured epoxy to suit your working conditions and the coating or bonding requirements of your project.
