    Howdy,
    I was wondering if anyone has any experience with pl premium over epoxy. I ask because I've got some little bits (tips of a gunnel, support plates for oarlocks) that I'm thinking about gluing onto my hull (which is sheathed in fiberglass/epoxy) with PL premium. I could use epoxy putty, but the PL is so much easier to use.

    I know some people aren't wild about PL, but I'm using in pretty small, fairly well joined areas.

    Thanks again.

    invest in some kevlar reinforced epoxy paste which will last for years. You will also find other uses for it... one such product is called wet dry 700
