Default Best Epoxy

According to Toller :

Without a doubt the best epoxy for any use including all home applications
is Devcon epoxy, get the cream colored type, highest strenght, can be
found at OSH
truly amazing stuff. )

Thanks. I will be doing some FG repairs on a canoe soon. I usually use
Wests, but will look for the Devcon. How much is a gallon?


Devcon appears to specialise in glues, adhesives and certain types
of coatings. It's web site only discusses 1min, 5min and 10min epoxy. Lots
of stuff for coating masonry, concrete, steel, lots of casting materials
for rebuilding machine parts, bonding metal, potting electrical parts,
conductive glues etc. But not one mention of fiberglassing or wood.

Nothing at all like the West system line of additives etc.

"East Systems" is virtually identical to West Systems (line of
additives etc), and should be somewhat cheaper. More than likely
somewhat harder to find tho.
