In Response To: Epoxy: US Composites Med (Bryan Hansel)

You know Bryan, I never really noticed. Maybe I'm just used to it. Seriously I think it sands about the same as the MAS I've been using. Fast and medium hardeners generally produce harder/stiffer composites. Like I said, never rally noticed a difference...

Dan

: I've been using US Composites Med epoxy for the Iggy, and today was my first
: chance to sand it.

: This stuff is HARD! I used 40 grit to take off drips, sand the bottom to add
: an extra layer of glass, and it was still work.

: Subjectively, I'd say the US Composites Med is much harder than the RAKA that
: I've used on all my other boats.

: Am I crazy or has anyone else noticed this?
