Marine tex

Post by boomhauer »

Used a small kit from ams on some small gashes on bottom of boat. Easy to use and I was able to hand sand with some effort. Looks good and smooth. Hard to match color, but mine were on bottom.

I've used it for years to fill in holes, scratches, etc. Great product. However, I've been told by a couple of professionals that it is not a barrier coat like gelcoat. It will absorb water. For a trailer boat it should'nt be an issue but if you leave your boat in the water it could be. Also, gelcoat won't stick to it so if you later decided to do a gelcoat repair, remove it first.
