    You can GL approved epoxy to very fair prices from ww.bodotex.dk in Denmark.

    GL approved BPA/F in 20kg for just below 4 Eur/kg and curing agents to 6-8 Eur/kg.

    Good luck

    Thanks for the suggestion Axell!
    I think this is for bigger quantitys then I might need. But a very very good price though especially when it is certified products. I found their homepage also. Maybe it is interesting for those boatbuilders who uses a lot of this stuff.

    Kind regards

    There are only a few BASE epoxies in the world(BASF and Shell make some)your local formulator buys these ,adds small amounts of "special ingredients" diluents, thickeners, wet-out aids or whatever and sells it to us. The Chinese fabricator usually just buys those base resins which are often thicker AND cures slower and uses things like heated moulds to get a good cure, It doesn't matter to the factory that the heat kills the moulds because there is then an endless supply of workers to sand a paint the products with isocyanate paints and primers and fix any print or distortions from cooked moulds.(it doesn't matter to anyone there that these paints are lethal)
