: To be honest, after my experiences with water based paint, I'll
: stay with West brand epoxy and let someone else try it for a few
: years and see how it holds up.

: I've been burnt too many times with promises only to find the
: products lacking.

Sounds familiar... darn LPU burned me hard. The white graphite looked promising also but needs more work. That's why I asked.

I've had great luck with MAS and I know a lot of other kayak builders who swear by it. It would be a tough switch. EcoPoxy looks promising but I'd like to hear from more people who have used it then the 4 people listed on their website. Maybe I'll make some panels and other samples this winter.

So, in summary,the answer to my initial question is a big NO.

Thanks,

Dan
