SilverTip Laminating Resin is Designed specifically for laminating. It is a med-low viscosity, liquid epoxy system that has been optimized for coating and reinforcing fabric saturation in wood-composite boatbuilding. Fast wet-out, no blush, and cures to a brilliant, colorless finish. Working time is longer than most boat building epoxies, without sacrificing cure time. Cured film is tough and resilient with better heat resistance than other room temperature cured epoxies. The resin can be purchased by itself or as part of a kit. The SilverTip kit includes 1 gallon of laminating resin, 1/2 gallon of either fast or slow hardener and a set of calibrated plungers for dispensing.
This is my favorite epoxy.

Pros:
Excellent bonding, Good mix of properties, Protects Well, Visually Pleasing
Cons:
Odd mix ratio by weight
Best Uses:
General Lamination, Indoor
Describe Yourself:
Recreational
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Unless you need maximum strength, or ultra-low viscosity, this is the one to use. No blush, good strength, no post-cure required, and it doesn't trap bubbles. It will bond to bare glass extremely well. I just don't like the fact that it has an odd mix ratio (if you do it by weight, 100 parts resin to 43 part hardener).
