Testing glass

Last year I bought resin from the Havel Composites and today was the time of testing. First of all I prepared dummy joint of two plywood on mahogany. Fairing mahogany or Gabon is like opening the box of cigars :-)

Than I applied the resin over 225g/sqm glass. It allowed me more than 1 hour of work and I had to move it to 20 Celsius to fully harden. It is almost fully transparent, the colour of the wood is enriched, the company says it is UV resistant so it should stay like that..


I plan to use this piece to test fillers, paint and also antifouling paint and final varnishes.
