2012-06-24CARY BRIEF asked: can this be used to repair gel coat cracks on a set of fiberglass pool steps? the steps are not smooth, but dimpled. I repaired them four years ago and gave them a new coat of gelcoat but it all now has fine cracks.

I have not used this on a pool but on the bottom of a Boston Whaler to repair some cracks. It worked great for me. Drys hard quickly and sands easily. If I were you, I would try a quart however, if you want a dimpled finish I am not sure how I would do this. ....
2012-07-08JOHN KIMZEY: Hi. I dont not have a fiberglass pool but I woud assume that you could indeed use anything approved for BELOW the waterline. This filler it the best that I have used (and I have tried them all.) Hope this helps.
2012-05-06RANDY WHITE asked: is this suitable to repair a slow leak while the boat is in the water? i don't want to have to pull mine out and wait for the agent to cure.
Thank You in Advance

2012-05-08JOHN KIMZEY: Hello. I have never applied this filler while the boat is in the water so I couldn't honesty tell you whether it would work or not. The product hardens from a chemical reaction with the hardener so I assume it would cure under the water. My main concern would be how well the filler would bond to the hull while in the water without a proper sanding and cleaning first. I would call 3m to ask. It is the only filler that I use for repairs and the most reliable. It doesn't shrink or crack and the tint of the hardener makes mixing visually easy. There are other products made especially for your purpose and made to cure under water for repairs under water. I have heard about aqua stick but have never used it. I hope this is helpful.
2012-05-21MICHAEL CLAUDON: Absolutely not. Coming into contact with water will inhibit curing, at the very least, and may well stop it altogether.
Sorry, but I do not have experience with or knowledge of anything that can cure your problem while your boat is in the water. Hydrostatic pressure will push anything you apply from the inside out of the hole.
Well, if you can get at it from the outside, maybe Gorilla duct tape will stick to the hull, but I doubt it.

2012-01-24NATHAN CAPUTO asked: will it bond to stage 3 epoxy?
+Expand Answers
2012-05-21MICHAEL CLAUDON: Not sure. I know that epoxies do not play nice with polyesters and conversely, but we've had good luck doing the initial fairing with one epoxy and then the final feathering with this 3M product.
2011-11-05A shopper asked: does this product come with hardener?
+Expand Answers
2012-05-21MICHAEL CLAUDON: Yes, that's why it is a two-part eopxy
2011-09-21LAWRENCE BOROVIAK asked: What is the maximum thickness per application for a repair? how does this product differ from Interlux Watertite?
+Expand Answers
2012-05-21MICHAEL CLAUDON: The Interlux is better for filling holes and is the only product recommended by Interlux for prepping surfaces for below-waterline barrier coat treatment.
A "golf ball" sized blob of this filler is about as much as I could mix and apply before it began to set up. I had a deck area of about one square foot to fill and fair, and it took about five batches to get close to the final level. The sandability in half an hour is true, but I'm not on the clock, so I'll stick to epoxy fillers in the future.

I found this product easy to use. Yes, it sets up quickly but the instructions tell you not to mix a lot at one time. It sands easy and used it above and below the waterline. Good stuff!

Comments about 3M Marine Premium Filler:
Unlike the previous complaint I felt it was a great product. You must be cautious not to mix more than you can work in a few minutes. Do not mix in the can. Place a workable amount on a piece of scrap and add the hardner. Mix and use. You can sand in 30 minutes or less.

The working time is so short for this product that it is hard to usemore than a golf ball sized batch at one time. If you have a lot of holes to fill, find another product.
