SilverTip Laminating Resin is specifically intended for laminating applications. It is a med-low viscosity, liquid epoxy system optimized for coating and reinforcing fabric saturation in wood-composite boatbuilding.
Silvertip resin provides 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.

Thanks

2012-02-14NORTH BROOKLIN BOATS: You can certainly use this without a layer of fiberglass but it will need something, like varnish, to block UV radiation. Not all varnish with stick properly to epoxy. I believe System Three makea a varnish especially for this purpose. I have also had success overcoating with Epiphanes. I've never used CPES so can't say for sure your epoxy will stick to it.
2012-02-14J D: Thank you for the help... JD
2012-03-03CAMERON STUART: In my experience, yes,. But System Three Clear Coat is a better choice as it has a lower viscosity and will penetrate the wood deeper. Check out the System Three website more detailed information. Good Luck!
2012-03-03J D: thank you... I'll definately take a look...
2011-11-09JEREMY DALE asked: Will the system 3 silver tip laminating resin work on fiber glass, carbon fiber & kevlar? I'm making a glass/kevar over wood & foam. & I'm also making a carbon leaf spring. Should I have different epoxy for each or will this one do?
Comments about System Three SilverTip Laminating Resin:
I used this product to both patch holes with fiberglass cloth and to cover the whole canoe prior to painting it with an epoxy based paint. It was excellent for both these purposes. Using the plunger set made it very easy to mix in small batches which I applied using a 6 inch roller. With 2 Qts of resin and 1 Qt of hardener I was able to cover my 17ft canoe completely from bow to stern 4 times and I still had about a pint of resin remaining. That included patching 3 small holes (6 sq in) with a double fiberglass cloth and one large hole (12 sq in) with 4 fiberglass clothes. Each cloth was covered with resin at least 3 times. As a woodworker I can see future uses for this product in that craft also.
