TotalBoat-434282 TotalFair Marine Epoxy Fairing Compound for Fiberglass, Wood, Aluminum and Steel (2 Pint Kit)

First let me say that I've never done fiberglass repair before buying this product. An accident resulted in a large crack that separated a section of fiberglass on our RV. After getting the fiberglass itself put back together from building it back up from the back side, I needed something easy to sand and paint for filling the crack on the visible side. This was what I decided to go with because of what appeared to be an easy to understand mixing and application process. The instructions seemed almost too simple - just mix it one to one and it's ready to use when it's green. It was so easy to mix and apply that I was honestly surprised. Sanding was easy as well, and it shaped up very nicely. It accepted the primer perfectly and made for a successful repair job. It has been six months since doing that project, and it still looks great with no signs of cracking. The RV repair shop who helped me with the mechanical damage from the accident couldn't believe that I actually repaired the fiberglass damage myself, lol.So anyway, while I can't recommend taking on a major repair project with no experience or professional supervision other than a couple of YouTube videos - that's exactly what I did, and this product is a big part of why I was able to do it. I recommend it 100%.

This is my second batch used in the restoration of a 23ft Jersey Beach Skiff. Compound is easy to mix, 1:1 ratio. Goes on smooth with the use of flexible plastic scrapers. Dry's to a sandable surface with in a few hours and I've been able paint over this compound within a few days. I've only used this on wood hull and deck surfaces and it's worked wonderfully to smooth out dings, gouges and some areas that had been over sanded leaving dish shaped depressions on the hull. Solid product!

This stuff is easy to mix and mold to what you need. It stays workable for about 15min. Cleans up easy. Best buy for the money.

Worked great for glazing transom

Product was delivered on time and worked well. It is a little hard to with. It's not bondo. The texture seems to run when applying it. I was working on rounded surfaces and it was probably more difficult. The materials blended great and dried solid in 24 hours. Easy to sand once cured. The containers don't seal right after use I don't know what's up with that? May be a one project and throw it away product.

One-to-one mix is simple to measure. It mixes easily and flows out smoothly on the surface.I was using it on soft pine and it was just a bit harder to sand than the pine but in my case that was a big advantage. I found that by using 40 or 60 grit for the first sanding, you could shape the surface as needed and then use the next layer of filler to fill the gaps to quickly get the contour you need.

Non-conventional usage here. Boat mooring snapped and spent the stormy night banging against the dock. Left a 2’ long, over 1” deep hole. It was bad. Took three applications to build it up, but turned out nice. Fairly easy to work with. A little messy. Packed it on thick, and sanded down easily. Took a couple of days to completely dry between applications. No shrinkage. May apply one final coat before painting.

Incredible for a floor repair in my RV
