Hi Les,

You used water? On my stitch and glue deck seams, I used the dry Durham's powder, wood flour and epoxy... just using the Durham's to lighten up the color of wood flour a bit.

I used:
- 7 teaspoons of wood flour (not sure which wood, it came with my Pygmy Arctic Tern kit)
- 2 teaspoons of dry, Durham's water putty powder
- mixed into 1 and 1/2 ounce of epoxy and hardener (System Three)

The color might be a tad too light but I haven't glassed the deck yet so I'm not sure.

I don't think it hides the deck seems much anyway because the resulting mixture isn't entirely opaque. I can still see the darker edge grain of the mahogony plywood under the putty. But it may work better for your use.

: Thanks, Rehd,

: I think I've got the water ratio pretty good. The mix has the consistency of

: what are you using for filler on your boats?
