Our West System Epoxy kit contains everything you need to tackle epoxy repairs and fiberglassing projects. Each kit includes a gallon of West System 105 resin (105B, .98 gal), 205B (fast) or 206B (slow) hardener, mixing pumps, 6 ounce fiberglass cloth, mixing sticks, latex gloves, the official West System user manual, and the West Fiberglass Restoration book. 205 fast hardener is used primarily in cooler temps or for a more rapid cure. 206 slow hardener is used in warmer temps or when more work time is needed. The Gougeon Brothers (founders of WEST) have been producing an effective epoxy for boat building and woodworking for over 35 years. While items may also be purchased separately, purchasing the complete kit saves time and money.

Comments about WEST System WEST System Epoxy Kit:

I've never had to repair anything using fiberglass and this kit made my first experience simple. The kit comes with and idiot guide and were easy to follow. Only negative point is, I wish the kit would have come with a few yards of woven roving.

Comments about WEST System WEST System Epoxy Kit:

As a first time wooden boat builder, I tried two other epoxy resins before finding West system resins. The others only wasted time and money. There is no comparison. The pumps make a perfect mix everytime. It goes on easier than anything else I tried. It dried quickly and evenly. It is simply the best to use and goes on perfect everytime.

Comments about WEST System WEST System Epoxy Kit:

My Dad built a Popular Science Redwood canoe in the '70s. I am trying to make it look good and useable again. This stuff handles all my adhesive needs as well as adding structural integrity to somewhat degraded Redwood. I am also using it for my fiberglass repairs on Polyurethane Resin. I also have an early '70s Chrysler TriHull that needs bottom repairs & this is the product.

Comments about WEST System WEST System Epoxy Kit:

I had done some fiberglass work in the past,mixing the correct ratio of hardener to resin was always a problem. Not with West Systems. Your repair manual is excellent. I now feel that there is no job that I couldn't do.

Comments about WEST System WEST System Epoxy Kit:

I use epoxies and adhesives daily in my "regular" job. I have never used a product that was this good. The West System 105 resin is the best I ever used. It is easy to apply, provides more surface area coverage, and dries to a tack free surface faster than any other resin I have used. I also like the blush free finish after it is fully cured. I highly recommend the West System products

Comments about WEST System WEST System Epoxy Kit:

Although it was recommended by the mentors at the boat building class, I had decided before to use the West System on my project. I am not disappointed, it is easy to use, can be worked with regular tools with great results and their support line is awesome.

The best available. Ready when needed. The metered pumps are perfect. Resin and a hardner are a bit pricy but what can you do?

As I am restoring an older boat on a budget

I am especially pleased to find that Jamestown Distributors has put together a kit that is both economical and practical, and believe me I shop around, no other supplier even came close to this deal. In my opinion West System is the best product on the market, covering any application that I have encountered with great results.

Comments about WEST System WEST System Epoxy Kit:

West System epoxies are the best by far that i've tried for wood applications. Their measuring system is easy and accurate, and their range of fillers is comprehensive. These epoxies allow me to explore designs, that might otherwise be difficult or impossible.
