Some tips for applying two part epoxies: -stripe coat rivets first. -never use a mixing paddle. It introduces air bubbles that pop and leave holidays. Mixing stick is always the best. Glad it worked, I’ve got a gallon on the way.

Update: I applied it. Someone in a thread somewhere mentioned a window cleaning squeegee with the rubber strip. Use that 100%. One way spreads and the other way pulls. Stripe coat every rib first and each rivet, on my 16’ boat it took .5 quart. Then pour even strips onto the hull, 1.5” in width. Use the window squeegee and work it towards the bow in a smooth direction. Make sure you have an unobstructed walkway. Rinse repeat. I used like a coat and a half with the super slick. It isn’t going to be perfectly even, that’s ok. If you use as directed, wear and tear will do the sanding for you. I also used the entire gallon. It set up fine… it is a 16’x52”. Can’t imagine this stuff coming off granted i sanded all the paint to bare metal, acid etched, scotch brite pad, rinse with pressure washer (absolutely essential to get the oxidation residue off), towel dry, acetone clean.

3M Marine 5200 is insane permanent caulking too. I use it on through hull bolts and rivets and it does not leak! probably why it’s 20$ a tube🤙🏻

If they are loose they will leak, made a solid rivet gun out of an air hammer and 3/4” bolt as a backing plate to butt them up against. They are 1/2” 3/16 brazier head rivets. Use 1/4 (thickness) if your holes are worn out. I got 3/4” 3/16 and cut to size so I could do the transom brackets too.

You want to add the pigment to part 2 before mixing part 1 and 2.. I'm about to do a 1542 jon, hoping 3 quarts will be enough.

It’s crazy slick... you even notice it on the water... less friction.. one thing I have noticed is it does wear off a little on the keels of my Jon boat probably where I drag it a lot. I would probably have put a double coat if it tried it again. Thanks for the view 👊🏽
